Omega-3 chicken Forage Blend. 2 oz. resealable seed packs. Plant in mud flats, containers or directly in bed and serve up to your chickens just at flowering. We use mud flats and set in the hens scratch pen until gone (Quickly!!!). Works best to have several containers planted approximately 5-7 days apart. Omega-3 fatty acids are an important component of a healthy diet. One way to get this substance in our food is to eat eggs from chickens raised on a diet that promotes the formation of Omega-3's right in the egg. This blend is planted for chicken forage to achieve this high Omega-3 result. A University study shows that there is almost 6 times the Omega-3 fatty acids in an "Omega" egg versus a conventional egg! Plant annually after danger of frost has passed. Caution: Flax can form prussic acid when exposed to frost so do not graze horses on this mix. Consists of: 20% Common Flax, 5% Ladino Clover, 5% Birdsfoot Broadleaf Trefoil, 10% Non-dormant Alfalfa, 20% Red Cowpeas, 40% Buckwheat. Fresh lot, packaged for 2009-2010 Planting instructions included with order. (Omega-3 chicken forage blend...seed packs 2 oz was posted and is owned by: Annette Aguilar) |
