Detailed Explanation of Broiler Feed Formulas for Each Growth Stage

From chick to market weight, broilers have different nutrient requirements at different growth and development stages. Based on the characteristics and nutritional needs of each growth stage, scientifically proportioning ingredients such as corn, soybean meal, oil, vitamins, amino acids, and minerals is the foundation for healthy and rapid growth of broilers. Below, let us take a look at the feed formulas for each growth stage of broilers.

Feed Formula for Broiler Chicks

1. Corn 55.3%, soybean meal 38%, calcium hydrogen phosphate 1.4%, limestone powder 1%, salt 0.3%, oil 3%, additives 1%.

2. Corn 54.2%, soybean meal 34%, rapeseed meal 5%, calcium hydrogen phosphate 1.5%, limestone powder 1%, salt 0.3%, oil 3%, additives 1%.

3. Corn 55.2%, soybean meal 32%, fish meal 2%, rapeseed meal 4%, calcium hydrogen phosphate 1.5%, limestone powder 1%, salt 0.3%, oil 3%, additives 1%.

Feed Formula for Growing Broilers

1. Corn 58.2%, soybean meal 35%, calcium hydrogen phosphate 1.4%, limestone powder 1.1%, salt 0.3%, oil 3%, additives 1%.

2. Corn 57.2%, soybean meal 31.5%, rapeseed meal 5%, calcium hydrogen phosphate 1.3%, limestone powder 1.2%, salt 0.3%, oil 2.5%, additives 1%.

3. Corn 57.7%, soybean meal 27%, fish meal 2%, rapeseed meal 4%, cottonseed meal 3%, calcium hydrogen phosphate 1.3%, limestone powder 1.2%, salt 0.3%, oil 2.5%, additives 1%.

Feed Formula for Finishing Broilers

1. Corn 60.2%, wheat bran 3%, soybean meal 30%, calcium hydrogen phosphate 1.3%, limestone powder 1.2%, salt 0.3%, oil 3%, additives 1%.

2. Corn 59.2%, wheat bran 2%, soybean meal 22.5%, rapeseed meal 9.5%, calcium hydrogen phosphate 1.3%, limestone powder 1.2%, salt 0.3%, oil 3%, additives 1%.

3. Corn 60.7%, soybean meal 21%, fish meal 2%, rapeseed meal 4.5%, cottonseed meal 5%, calcium hydrogen phosphate 1.3%, limestone powder 1.2%, salt 0.3%, oil 3%, additives 1%.

Note: Broiler feed must contain relatively high energy and protein, with appropriate amounts of vitamins, minerals, and trace elements added. It is best to use different complete compound feeds at different growth stages of broilers, with unlimited feeding amounts, allowing them to eat freely, and adding feed at fixed times each day. The feed added should not exceed 1/3 of the height of the trough to avoid pecking out and waste. Do not feed moldy or spoiled feed, and ensure fresh, clean, and sufficient drinking water. Adding 5-10% glucose or sucrose to the drinking water before the first feeding helps chicks recover their strength and grow.
