Calcium Carbonate for Chickens Calcium in hens' daily diet In poultry feed, calcium carbonate is used as a key ingredient in diet formulation to ensure that hens get enough calcium in their daily diet. Hens that do not get enough calcium in their diet can develop health problems such as brittle bones, low egg production and eggs with weak shells.
How to add it to the diet
Calcium carbonate can be added to hens' diet in several ways, such as in powder form or as a mix of granules. The amount of calcium carbonate that should be added to hens' diet depends on several factors, such as the age of the birds, their egg production rate and the amount of calcium present in the diet ingredients.
It is important to make sure that hens have constant access to fresh, clean water, as calcium is soluble in water and hens need to drink enough water to absorb it properly. In addition, it is important to keep in mind that a diet that is excessively high in calcium can be harmful to hens and can lead to health problems such as kidney stones.
