This handy guide allows you to calculate the optimum number of Peck Toys for your flock:

Using as a treat dispenser: 1 Peck Toy per 4 medium sized chickens
Using as a feed dispenser: 1 Peck Toy per 2 medium sized chickens
Using as a grit dispenser: 1 Peck Toy per 6 medium sized chicken
Try using a different type of treat, preferably something you know then chickens really like, and that is big enough that they can see it. Carefully hit the toys with your hand or foot while your chickens are looking to give them an idea of how they can get the treats out. You can also put the dispenser on the ground to start with so the flock can investigate it before you hang it up or stick it in the ground.

The dispenser can easily be removed for cleaning and refilling. Simply unscrew the dispenser from it’s attachment and use it to scoop up your chosen treats before reattaching.

When cleaning the dispenser we recommend using a non-scratch sponge and washing up liquid in warm soapy water.
