CUSTOM MILK REPLACER FOR DAY-OLD POULTRY

Why use milk replacer for day-old poultry? 

Not every hatch goes as planned. Whether you’re raising chicks, poults, or ducklings, early setbacks can mean big losses. Milk replacer offers fast hydration, digestible energy, and gut support, exactly what fragile birds need in their first 24–48 hours.  

What should be in a poultry milk replacer?

Day-old birds need nutrition that’s easy to take in and gentle on the gut. A solid formula includes: 

  • Dairy-based energy sources 
  • Simple carbs for quick absorption 
  • Electrolytes and hydration support 
  • Gut health ingredients like probiotics 
  • Immune-boosting nutrients 

Powder blends are easy to mix and can be offered in troughs, bottle systems, or hand-fed setups.
