Purina Layena Crumbles & Pellets
Purina Layena crumbles & pellets provide optimum nutrition for healthy birds and nutritious eggs. A 16%-protein, high-calcium ration formulated with prebiotics, probiotics and yeast for top-producing laying hens once they reach 18 weeks of age. Available in crumble and pellet form.
Purina Layena includes our Oyster Strong® System for strong shells. Oyster shell provides another source of calcium when the hens need it most. Oyster shell is a larger particle size than limestone.
This means that oyster shell will stay in the digestive tract longer and will provide a source of calcium for eggshell production over a longer period of time than smaller particle sources of calcium. This is especially important at night when eggshell formation is rapidly occurring and dietary sources of calcium are limited because the bird is not eating.
Purina Layena Crumbles & Pellets are available for purchase at New Braunfels Feed & Supply located in New Braunfels, Texas.
