In poultry farming, stress is often an unseen adversary that can significantly impact bird health and productivity. Factors like heat, overcrowding, and sudden environmental changes can lead to oxidative stress, inflammation, and compromised immunity in chickens. Addressing these challenges proactively is crucial for maintaining a healthy and productive flock.   Understanding the Impact of Stress on Poultry Stress in chickens manifests in various ways, including: ●       Reduced Feed Intake : Stressed birds may eat less, leading to slower growth rates. ●       Weakened Immune Response : Chronic stress can impair the immune system, increasing susceptibility to diseases. ●       Digestive Issues : Stress can disrupt gut health, affecting nutrient absorption and overall health. ●       Behavioral Changes : Increased aggression or feather pecking can occur under stress.

There’s a growing shift in poultry farming today. One that’s moving away from heavy antibiotic use and toward something more sustainable, more gut-focused — and frankly, smarter. That shift is powered by probiotics in poultry , and among them, ADCELL-SBx™ by ABTL stands out as a proven support for digestive health and disease resistance. So how exactly can probiotics help farmers reduce their reliance on antibiotics? Let’s break it down. Why Probiotics Matter in Poultry Today Poultry farming faces a familiar challenge: keep birds healthy, growing, and productive — without pumping them full of antibiotics. But with increasing regulations, consumer pressure, and resistance issues, antibiotics are no longer the default solution. Enter probiotics. Probiotics in poultry are live beneficial microbes that help maintain a healthy balance of gut flora. They do what antibiotics can’t — they support long-term digestive health, immunity, and resistance to harmful bacteria like E. coli and Salmo...

Today, poultry farmers face a unique problem. As demand for poultry products grows rapidly, especially in developing countries, the cost of feeding birds is rising even faster. Feed contributes to nearly 60–70% of total production costs , and the supply of traditional ingredients like maize and soybean is struggling to keep up. To bridge the gap, producers are shifting toward locally available ingredients like wheat bran, rice bran, sunflower meal, or palm meal. These are cost-effective, sure — but they also introduce a new challenge: lower digestibility . Birds often can’t access the full energy in these feeds. That’s where feed enzymes, particularly amylase enzyme in poultry feed , come into play. And this is exactly where ABTL steps in with its enzyme-based precision n...

  Protein in Poultry Isn’t Just Important—It’s Foundational If you're raising poultry, you already know feed is everything. But here’s the catch—it’s not just about quantity. It’s about the right balance. And among all nutrients, proteins in poultry diets carry the biggest responsibility. They build muscle, support the immune system, help develop organs, and even influence feather quality. So, if birds are underperforming, growing unevenly, or eating more without converting it to gain—protein might be the silent culprit. Why Protein Plays Such a Critical Role Protein is made up of amino acids—the building blocks that poultry needs for: ●       Muscle development ●       Feather growth ●       Hormone and enzyme production ●       Immune response ●       Egg production (in layers) Unlike energy, which birds can store, amino acids mus...
