Poultry Vitamins & Supplements

Poultry Vitamins & Supplements

Need to balance your poultry’s diet? Fortifying it with some key vitamins and minerals can help. Whether you want to keep broilers or breeders in top shape or protect layers and their hatchlings from illness, you can find the right blend for their needs at Tractor Supply.

Year-Round Support for Your Flock

Many of our formulas come pre-mixed and ready for use, and they are designed to either be fed alone or added to existing feed. Some mixes are designed to address specific nutrient deficiencies. Our options can help with the following priorities of chicken keepers:

Maintaining Overall Health and Wellness

For chickens, ducks and other birds, a happy, productive Life Out Here means getting all the vitamins they need to thrive. To enable your flock to develop strong muscles, a robust nervous system and good vision, choose a solution rich in vitamins E and A. For metabolic, reproductive and dermal support, vitamins B1, B2, B6, B12 should be added to the mix, along with folic acid and biotin.

Options with probiotics and apple cider vinegar, on the other hand, can improve nutrient absorption. You can combine them with oyster shell grit if your fowl’s gizzards need extra digestive help. To enhance calcium absorption and encourage both proper bone development and productive egg-laying, complement with vitamin D3, and to reduce your feathered friends’ stress, consider anti-inflammatory vitamin C.

Preventing Disease

Even with all their nutritional needs met, your flock can still fall prey to bacteria, viruses and parasites. You can boost their immunity with garlic, for instance; supplements containing it even have the added benefit of stimulating a bird’s appetite and reducing the odor of their manure. Recipes containing vitamin K, in contrast, can help stave off coccidiosis and help blood clot effectively. Those with choline, however, can assist in preventing perosis, or a slipped tendon in the avian hock joint.
