Why feed medicated grit?

  • Quartz grit in the gizzard aids the digestion of heather shoots, which makes up approx. 80% of the fibrous diet of a grouse
  • Medicated grit targets a parasitic threadworm that lives in the gut of red grouse, Trichostrongylus tenuis. A disease more commonly known as Strongylosis or Strongyle worm.
  • Owens Nutrition medicated grit contains Flubendazole which targets all stages of the worm’s life cycle.
  • Medicated grit reduces worm burdens in grouse, improves body condition and increases chick survival rates, thus increasing grouse productivity

 

User guide:

  • A veterinary prescription is required to buy medicated grit
  • All medicated grit must be removed 28 days before grouse are harvested and consumed.
  • Plain grit can be put out to replace medicated grit so the grouse can continue to benefit
  • All Owens Nutrition grit is supplied in 25kg packs
