Feeding Directions

• Emus - Feed to newly hatched emus until birds reach adult body weight. Feed free-choice or limit-feed to 75% of free-choice consumption depending on facilities and accessibility of chicks to facility
• Ostriches - Feed free-choice to newly hatched ostrich chicks until approximately 90 days of age or until they reach a body weight of 70 lbs (whichever comes first).
• Grit - The use of grit may help in decreasing the incidence of impactions by strengthening the gizzard. Granite grit should be used. Do not use limestone as a source of grit. Grit can be made available to the birds as soon as they are hatched. Mix grit with the feed (1.5% by weight, example for every 89 grams of feed, mix in 2 grams of grit). Change the grit size as the animals grow.
• General recommendation for grit use:
  • Hatch to 3 weeks - 2/16" grit (starter size)
  • 4 to 7 weeks - 3/16" to 4/16" length, 2/16" width grit (grower size)
  • 8 to 16 weeks - 6/16" to 8/16" length, 4/16" width (developer size)
  • 16 weeks on - 10/16" to 14/16" length, 6/16" width (turkey size)
