High-Performance Nutrition for Broilers & Layers

Optimized amino acid profiles, phytase integration, and precise metabolizable energy to drive maximum meat and egg production.

EXPERT NUTRITION & STRATEGY

Driving Poultry Profitability Through Precision Nutrition

The modern broiler and layer require a diet that matches their immense genetic potential. At Melick Aquafeeds, we utilize advanced linear programming to formulate diets that perfectly balance metabolizable energy (ME) with digestible amino acids. Our poultry feeds are designed to minimize feed cost per pound of gain and cost per dozen eggs.

Gut health is the foundation of poultry performance. We incorporate proven feed additives, including prebiotics, probiotics, organic acids, and advanced enzyme blends (like phytase and xylanase) to maximize nutrient utilization. Our multi-phase feeding programs ensure that your birds receive the exact nutrient density they need at day 7, day 21, and day 42, eliminating costly over-feeding of expensive protein.

Optimized FCR

By balancing diets on an ideal amino acid profile rather than crude protein, we consistently achieve lower FCRs, directly improving your bottom line in both meat and egg operations.

Gut Health Focus

We utilize a strategic blend of organic acids, essential oils, and competitive exclusion probiotics to maintain intestinal integrity and combat coccidiosis and necrotic enteritis.

Eggshell Quality

Our layer diets feature precision-balanced calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D3 ratios, along with large-particle limestone, to ensure optimal eggshell thickness and reduce downgrades.

TECHNICAL DEEP DIVE

Understanding Ideal Protein in Poultry

The concept of the "Ideal Protein" is central to our poultry formulations. Instead of formulating to a generic Crude Protein target, we formulate to meet the exact requirements of the first-limiting amino acids (typically Lysine, Methionine, and Threonine). By matching the dietary amino acid profile exactly to the bird's requirement for maintenance and tissue growth, we minimize excess nitrogen excretion. This not only saves money on expensive protein sources but also dramatically improves litter quality and reduces house ammonia levels, leading to healthier respiratory systems and lower mortality.
