Poultry Treats

Natural Rewards for Happy Birds

Poultry treats are more than just a tasty reward – they play an important role in encouraging natural behaviour and keeping birds stimulated. At Zoar’s Ark, we understand how vital enrichment is for poultry health and wellbeing. Offering nutritious treats alongside a balanced diet helps reduce boredom, support digestion and promote overall happiness.

Pecking blocks and corn-based treats allow birds to express their natural instinct to forage and peck. This gentle activity reduces stress, prevents feather pecking and provides a healthy source of energy. Natural treats are also an excellent way to encourage social interaction and activity within your flock, supporting calmer, more content birds.

Supporting a Balanced Diet

While poultry treats are a great way to reward your birds, they should complement – not replace – their main feed. High-quality treats made from natural grains, seeds and herbs provide valuable nutrients and minerals that support digestion and feather health. Offering them in moderation keeps birds satisfied without upsetting their dietary balance.

Providing treats at specific times, such as during training or as part of free-ranging routines, also helps strengthen trust and positive behaviour. Combined with good feed and clean water, these additions contribute to a healthier and more harmonious flock.
