Soybean meal is a common chicken feed ingredient that is rich in high-quality protein and amino acids and is beneficial to the growth and development of chickens. Here’s a breakdown of the correct way to use soybean meal when feeding chickens:
Understand feed ratios:
When feeding chickens, the proportion of soybean meal used should be determined according to the breed, growth stage and feeding goals of the chickens. Usually, the proportion of soybean meal in feed is about 10%-20%, and the specific proportion may vary according to the formula of the feed.
With other feeds:
Soybean meal is often used as part of the feed, mixed with corn, wheat bran and other grains to ensure a balanced and comprehensive nutrition in the feed.
Processing:
Soybean meal can be fried or puffed before being used in chicken feed, which will help improve the protein utilization of soybean meal and also help reduce the impact of anti-nutritional factors.
Control feeding amount:
When adding soybean meal, you should increase it gradually and observe the chicken's food intake and growth and development. Excessive addition of soybean meal to feed can cause indigestion and affect the health and growth of chickens.
Pay attention to your water supply:
When feeding soybean meal, ensure that the chickens have sufficient drinking water, which facilitates digestion and absorption and helps the chickens excrete excess nitrogen compounds in the body.
Monitor and adjust:
After adding soybean meal to the feed, the growth status of the chickens should be closely observed, and the proportion of soybean meal in the feed should be adjusted according to the actual situation to meet the different nutritional needs of the chickens at different growth stages.
Generally speaking, soybean meal is a high-quality protein source. Adding it in appropriate amounts can improve the nutritional content of feed and improve the growth performance of chickens. But be careful when using it and ensure it is used rationally, because soybean meal also contains anti-nutritional factors, and excessive use will affect the health and growth of chickens. For the best usage ratio and usage method, you can consult poultry breeding experts for advice.
