Complementary feed for broilers or laying hens plays a crucial role in supporting their well-being and performance. These feeds are designed to supplement the birds’ primary diet and provide essential nutrients that may be lacking. Here are the key aspects to consider when formulating complementary feeds adapted to their needs.
Depending on the physiological stage of the animal and its production type, different supplementary functions of the complementary feed are essential to support the animal the best possible way. While complementary feed represents an additional cost for farmers, it can result in greater economic efficiency by improving the overall productivity of the poultry flock.

Kersia’s complementary feed range for LAYING HENS
Egg production in poultry represents a significant metabolic challenge due to the high energy and nutrient demands associated with the processes of egg formation and laying. The production of eggs requires a complex interplay of various physiological and metabolic processes. The formation of eggshells is particularly demanding in terms of calcium. Hens need to mobilize and absorb sufficient calcium from their diet to deposit into the eggshell. This process places a strain on the hen’s calcium metabolism, and deficiencies can lead to weak or thin eggshells.
