UltraCruz® Poultry Probiotic Supplement for Chickens
- Supports digestive health in chickens
- Contains prebiotics and probiotics
- Helps maintain healthy microbial populations
- Mix into drinking water
UltraCruz® Poultry Probiotic Supplement for Chickens supplies a comprehensive collection of key prebiotics and probiotics to help maintain digestive health in chickens and maintain flock health. This probiotic supplement may be especially beneficial during stressful events such as antibiotic therapy or changes in diet. It is provided as a palatable powder that mixes easily into the drinking water.
Prebiotics are sources of non-digestible, soluble fiber that serve as food for probiotics, to help increase the number of beneficial bacteria present in the digestive tract. Example of prebiotics include: arabinogalactan, fructooligosaccharides, inulin, mannanoligosaccharides, pectin and psyllium.
Probiotics are live microorganisms (bacteria and yeast) fed to promote healthy digestive and immune function. When these "good" bugs break down food ingredients that the body normally cannot, they produce energy and vitamins for the body, and help maintain a healthy balance of gut flora.
This high quality formulation contains over 200 million CFU (colony forming units) of beneficial bacteria and prebiotics to give chickens the jump start they need to help them handle stressful events. To support total body health in chickens with essential vitamins and minerals, we recommend feeding UltraCruz® Poultry Wellness Supplement for Chickens.
