Southern 22% Layer Pellets

22% Layer Pellets (50 lb.)

Give your laying flock a high-nutrition boost with these premium 22% Layer Pellets. Engineered for high-producing laying hens, molting birds, and flocks needing elevated protein, this complete 50-pound feed delivers a potent 22% crude protein profile paired with high calcium (3.50%–4.00%) to support exceptional egg production, strong shell density, and rapid feather regrowth.

Formulated in a uniform pelletized shape, this feed eliminates selective pecking, minimizes feeder dust, and reduces waste in the coop. The elevated protein content makes it an outstanding choice during seasonal molting periods when hens require extra protein to regrow feathers, or during high-demand laying cycles when birds need additional nutritional support.

Fortified with essential amino acids (Lysine and Methionine), vital vitamins (A, D3, E, and B-complex), and a full trace mineral pack, these pellets promote vibrant flock vitality, excellent body condition, and strong immune health. Pullets can be transitioned from chick starter crumbles directly to these layer pellets at 16 weeks of age.
