The texture also stimulates the gizzard for better digestion. Many free range keepers prefer mash as it more closely mimics natural feeding behaviour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat is Sel-Plex® organic selenium?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSel-Plex® is a highly bioavailable organic form of selenium that is more effectively absorbed than inorganic selenium. It supports immune function, antioxidant defence and eggshell integrity in laying hens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs this suitable for waterfowl?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo — Fancy Feeds Layers Mash is not suitable for waterfowl. For ducks and geese, use Fancy Feeds Fenland Waterfowl Pellets instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs this a complete feed?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — no additional supplements are required when fed as directed. Always provide fresh water and insoluble grit alongside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow should I store layers mash?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStore in a cool, dry, vermin-proof container. Keep dry — moisture can cause mash to clump and spoil. Use within 6–8 weeks of opening.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fancy Feeds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55574442377592,"sku":"C-5025393003181","price":22.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/6558\/2781\/files\/243.jpg?v=1780500577","url":"https:\/\/www.littlepeckers.co.uk\/products\/fancy-feeds-layers-mash-20kg","provider":"Little Peckers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
