How to Use Roost
To apply our uniquely designed flock boosters, just measure, mix, and switch!
- Measure out the correct amount for each product:
- Lay: 1 teaspoon per gallon of water
- Peak: 1 teaspoon per gallon of water
- Nest: 1 tablespoon per gallon of water
- Mix the product directly into your coop waterers.
- Switch products next week! Sit back and watch as we help BOOST YOUR ROOST.
That’s it!
Alternate between the Week A and Week B formulas each week. Roost will last a flock of 5-10 birds at least six months. Follow this guide to know which product to use each week:
| Week | Product | Dosage |
|---|---|---|
| Week A | Nest | 1 tbsp per gallon of drinking water |
| Week B | Lay | 1 tsp per gallon of drinking water |
| Week B | Peak | 1 tsp per gallon of drinking water |
Why Switch Products Each Week?
Nest should not be mixed with Peak. Apple Cider Vinegar, the main ingredient in Nest, has antimicrobial properties that can be harmful to the beneficial bacteria found in Peak. Applying these products on different weeks ensures their effectiveness.
How Roost Works
Roost products are formulated with natural ingredients such as active carbon and beneficial microbes to support and enhance your flock’s health. Each product in the Roost lineup is uniquely designed to optimize your chickens’ performance and well-being.

Do your backyard chickens have a vitamin and mineral deficiency?
Raising chickens can be an incredible source of joy for you and your family, but sometimes it’s hard to know if you are truly raising happy and healthy birds. Finding sustainable, safe products can be even more complicated— is anything really all-natural and effective?

It can be hard to find products that are simple, easy to use and effective, and even harder to ensure that those products are safe for you and your birds.
