Heygates Partridge Maintenance Pellets are a non-medicated 2.2mm pellet developed to support mature partridges through release and into the shooting season. Formulated with a carefully balanced energy-to-protein ratio, this maintenance diet helps birds maintain healthy condition without promoting excessive weight gain.
Designed specifically for later-stage and overwintered birds, this feed provides the nutritional balance needed to keep partridges healthy and active while avoiding birds becoming overly fat.
Suitable for use following the main rearing programme, Partridge Maintenance Pellets provide the final stage of feeding for mature birds and can also be fed alongside a scratch wheat ration where appropriate.
