Prestarter - Unlocking flock productivity
In commercial broiler chicken operations, there is often a delay in chicks’ access to feed and water. This negatively impacts chick productivity. The longer the chicks take to receive their first feed and water, the lower their growth rate and the higher the mortality rate in the first days. Prestarter 0-4 days is the first commercially available feed specialty designed to meet the specific nutritional needs of chicks in their first four days.
Product application
Prestarter 0-4 days is an antibiotic-free specialty which targets the first four days after hatching. Developed by Trouw Nutrition’s experts, Prestarter 0-4 days connects the very latest poultry research and knowledge on early-life nutrition. Feeding an average of 70 grams, spread over the first four days of the chick’s life, provides chicks with optimal onset of production cycle, steady growth and optimal carry over effect at market age.
