A High-Protein Fish and Shrimp Chicken Treat
Reward your flock with Little Farmer Products Fish & Shrimp Omega-3 Protein-Packed Poultry Treat. This natural blend contains dried river shrimp and minnow fish for an irresistible taste chickens love.

Why Chickens Need Protein
Protein supports many essential functions in a chicken’s body. For example, hens need adequate protein to maintain healthy muscles, grow new feathers, and produce eggs.
This Fish and Shrimp Chicken Treat can help supplement the protein found in a complete poultry feed. However, treats should always be offered in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
Potential benefits include:
- Supports healthy feather growth
- Provides extra nutrition during molting
- Helps maintain active, healthy hens
- Supports normal egg production
- Encourages natural pecking and foraging
- Offers an appealing high-protein reward
Natural Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Fish and shrimp naturally contain omega-3 fatty acids. These important fats support overall nutrition and help maintain healthy heart and nervous-system function.
Additionally, supplementing a flock’s balanced diet with natural omega-3 sources may increase the omega-3 content of their eggs. Results can vary based on the hen’s complete diet and feeding routine.
Calcium for Laying Hens
River shrimp provide naturally occurring calcium and minerals. Calcium plays an important role in eggshell formation and normal egg production.
Even so, this treat should not replace a complete layer feed or a separate free-choice calcium source when one is needed.
Simple, Natural Ingredients
This protein-packed poultry treat contains only two ingredients:
- Dried river shrimp
- Dried minnow fish
The simple recipe makes it easy to see exactly what you are feeding your flock.

Feeding Directions
Offer the Fish and Shrimp Chicken Treat after your flock has eaten its complete poultry feed.
You can:
- Hand-feed it to encourage interaction
- Sprinkle it on the ground for foraging
- Place it in a treat dish
- Add it to supervised enrichment activities
Always provide fresh, clean drinking water. Also, limit treats so they do not displace the nutrition supplied by a complete feed.
Helpful During Molting
Molting requires extra nutritional resources because chickens must grow an entirely new set of feathers. Since feathers consist largely of protein, a protein-rich supplemental treat can be especially appealing during this time.
However, proper flock nutrition should begin with a balanced feed formulated for the birds’ age and life stage.

There is a little farmer in everyone.
