As the temperatures dip, it's more important than ever that your flock gets the nutrition it needs. Here's why protein matters even more in cold weather:
š When itās cold it takes more calories to stay warm. Protein helps maintain strong muscles and internal organs that produce metabolic heat efficiently.
š§£Protein can be converted to energy too, and used specifically for keeping warm.
𩹠Protein supports antibody production and tissue repair, helping resist respiratory infections and cold-related injuries.
š„Protein helps sustain laying and keeps yolks healthy when energy demands are high.
š During or after molting extra protein helps grow dense, healthy feathers for better warmth retention. There is a specific amino acid that contributes to plumage, and the high methionine content of our feeds, makes for the prettiest, warmest feathers ever!
