    This document discusses nutrition feed formulation and feeding management for chick growers and layers. It provides details on: - Poultry requiring a balanced diet from feed to support growth, health and productivity as they cannot synthesize their own nutrients. - Feed composition including 60-65% energy sources like grains, 30-35% protein sources like oilcakes, and 2-8% minerals. - Standard nutrient requirements that vary by life stage for chick, grower and layer diets. - Guidelines for managing feed purchases based on quality, modifying formulas based on cost and availability, and storing feed properly to prevent issues.

    Nutrition feed

    formulation for chick


    grower and layer
    Feeding Management
    Poultry being simple stomached species, cannot
    synthesise most of the nutrients required for them and
    so the nutrients become dietary essentials chicken has
    to be fed adequate quantities of balanced diet for its
    growth, livability and to exhibit its genetic potential to
    the full extent.
     Poultry differ from other species of livestock in body
    temperature and digestion
    Biological activity and maturity. Poultry feed is
    composed of 60-65% Energy giving materials 30-35% of
    Protein source 2-8% Minerals source.
    And above all water. Which is considered as the
    Principal nutrient should be pure, whole some, free
    from physical impurities, toxic substances and Bacterial
    contamination.
    Water : feed ratio 2.2 : 1
     It is variable with age, climate, feed and physiological
    activity. Excess energy is stored as body fat.
    Yellow maize.
     cumbu.
    Cholam.
    Rice polish.
    This energy materials constitute 50% of the ration.
    Protein : Protein is required by the bird for 1. Growth
    2. Maintenance of body tissues
    3. Production. Both vegetable and animal proteins are
    used in the feed.
    Vegetable Protein : Ground nut oil cake Soyabean oil
    cake Gingelly oil cake Sunflower oil cake Mustard oil
    cake.
     This is added at 15-25% in the ration. It is always
    advisable to add two or more for better balancing.
    Animal Protein: Fish meal, meat meal, Blood meal silk
    worm pupa meal out of this fish meal is ideal this
    forms -5-10% of the ration.
    Grain bye products like bran in included from 10-30%
    for fibre, bowl movement and minerals.
    if molasses available it can also be added for energy at
    5-7% levels, which is a cheap source of energy, reduces
    dustiness, improves palatability.
    Mineral mixture for poultry :
     Included at 2.3% It is advisable to use salt free mineral
    mixture because fish meal available in our country is
    salted. Calcium supplements such as shell grit, calcite,
    limestone, etc. are used at 4-5% levels. Standard
    requirement of nutrients:
    Chick Grower layer
    Crude Protein % min. 22 16 18
     Crude fibre % max. 7 8 10
    Calcium % min. 1 0.8 2.75
    Total phosphorus % min 0.7 0.6 0.75
     Metabolizable Energy K/ca/kg. 2800 2600 2700-
    2750
     Lysine (%min.) 1.0 0.7 0.5
     Methionine (% min) 0.35 0.25 0.25

    13-16 weeks – 50
    Restricted feeding 17-20 weeks – 60

    Egg Production 95 gm. 80 % 120 50%
    Egg Production 105gm.Over 80% 12 60%
     Egg Production 110 gm.
    Guide lines for feed management :
    1. Purchase quality ingredients / feed.
    with least moisture and devoid of
    adulteration.
    2. If own feed is mixed formula may be
    modified depending upon the cost and
    availability of ingredients
    3. If agricultural farm is attached farm
    grown grain can be used
    4. Purchase one month or two months requirements.
    5. Screen the feed store room against rodents,
    sparrows other vermins.
    6. Observe the feed intake by the birds during
    summer, winter.
    7. If moisture level exceeds 15% (except molasses)
    during hot season it may cause growth of fungus and
    precipitate problems like aflatoxicosis.
