{"product_id":"peters-energy-block-dried-mealworms","title":"Peters Energy Block Dried Mealworms","description":"\u003cp\u003eA solid 280g block of Australian beef tallow, wheat, sunflower and millets with dried mealworms through it, for backyard laying hens. Peters positions it as a high-energy supplement and points to the linoleic acid content as the reason it can help egg size and production. It is dense, fatty food — genuinely useful in cold weather or through a moult, less so for a flock that is already well conditioned in mid-summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe block form is the point: hens have to peck at it, which slows intake and gives them something to do.
