Humphrey Feeds
Humphrey Feeds is a family business with over 75 years of poultry experience. Poultry feeds are our specialty – excellent nutrition, consistency, experience and reliability! We supply all types of layers feeds, organic poultry feeds, breeder feeds and rearing feeds – and these can be tailored to meet your specific requirements, with the assistance of our experienced farm support team. Initially we fed our own laying and rearing birds – and supplied a few local farmers.
From that time onwards our customers, and our range of feeds, has expanded greatly and we are now the South West, South and South East’s leading independent specialist poultry feed supplier.
Rearing and laying feeds are supplied to the Egg Division farms and the division markets feeds to independent egg producers, hatching egg producers and broiler growers. With nearly 400 specialised diets currently in use, we are able to provide a feed, which is suited to all types of poultry at all stages of their life and/or production cycle.
Our own dedicated fleet of vehicles ensures that quality is maintained throughout, giving the producer/grower additional reassurance in the product we produce, as we know what has been in our vehicles and when cleaning has been carried out.
There have been a number of public awareness issues that have been raised such as:
- Superstar chefs filming programs about the benefits of organic and free range foods.
- Battery cages being banned in the EU by 2012.
- Public opinions have changed due to the increasing coverage by the media of the way chickens are being treated.
Therefore there has probably never been a better time to move into free range and organic egg production.
Humphrey Feeds are in a unique position to offer specialist feeds and a wealth of advice and support to new ventures.
We are seeking to work with farmers in order to offer complete turnkey solutions to get you up and running quickly and effectively with great results from the start.
