Chickens are adaptable creatures and are able to adjust to cold winter months better than most animals. As the environmental temperature decreases, the hen needs to increase her internal body temperature to compensate for the loss of external heat. This task is quite nutrient demanding since a lot of energy is utilised to generate heat.
Welcome to the Barastoc Naturals range, this range is based on the same sound nutritional expertise as the Barastoc Essentials range, but tailored to give flexibility and natural features to your backyard feeding regime. At Barastoc we understand the importance and the part we can play in the natural garden ecosystem and its growing interest.
Throughout your bird’s life there are a lot of changes and significant milestones that are reached that we need to be aware of and have an understanding. From day 1 all the way through to maturation of the adult bird we have an impact on their longevity and success in the backyard flock.
