YAY chooks coming this weekend!!! Younger than I'd originally thought (YAY again!) but need to get some growers pellets in. Local shop has Small Holder growers...............is this a brand name or are these ok or are they something different?

[Olly]

As far as I know 'Smallholder' is a brand name.

Yes Smallholder is the brand. I use Smallholder layers and think it's pretty good.

DOH! thanks for clearing it up!! x

My preference is for the Smallholder range (made by Allen & Page) as it's GM & hexane free.

I googled and very quickly found this site which tells you all about the brand.

cheers - I can get this quickly and easily so they'll have this until they grow into garvo layers x

I can highly recommend small holder range . Last September I went to a River Cottage Autumn Fayre and got talking to the rep for them , she recommended trying the ex-batts range for my 2 girls as Ginger in particular was looking really bedraggled with poor feather growth (she was a prolific egg layer and nearly 4yrs old ) and the egg shells were getting thinner - tried chicken spice , the vet etc. After using the feed for about a month feathers fully restored and added bonus she was laying again !! This Spring she has now stopped laying but still looks beautiful and is happy.
