Transitioning from Conventional Feed

A gradual transition ensures digestive health and maintains egg production

7-Day Transition Schedule

Days 1-2

75% old feed + 25% GrayStone Pellets

Days 3-4

50% old feed + 50% GrayStone Pellets

Days 5-6

25% old feed + 75% GrayStone Pellets

Day 7+

100% GrayStone Pellets

What to Expect During Transition

  • Days 1-3: Hens may be cautious with new pellets - this is normal
  • Days 4-7: Increased water consumption as they adjust to new protein sources
  • Week 2: Egg production stabilizes, shell quality may improve
  • Week 3-4: Noticeable improvement in feather quality and hen vitality
  • Week 4+: Richer yolk color and consistent laying patterns

💡 Pro Tip:

Mix the feeds thoroughly to prevent hens from selectively eating only the old feed. Ensure fresh water is always available during the transition period.
