Top Tips to Keep Your Poultry Happy and Healthy This Summer

Summer can be a challenging time for poultry, but with a little extra care, you can ensure your flock stays happy and healthy.

At Animall we offer top-quality products and advice to keep your birds comfortable during the warmer months.

1. Hydration: Ensure your poultry has constant access to fresh, clean water. During hot weather, water intake increases, so check and refill their water supply frequently. Adding electrolytes can also help maintain their hydration levels.
2. Shade and Ventilation: Provide plenty of shaded areas and ensure good ventilation in the coop. This helps to keep the temperature down and prevent heat stress. Our range of Nettex Poultry products includes solutions to improve coop ventilation and hygiene.
3. Chicksoft Bedding: Use Chicksoft bedding, which is ideal for summer. Its Eucalyptus oil content helps keep insects at bay, providing a comfortable and pest-free environment for your birds. This bedding is not only soft and absorbent but also promotes a healthier living space.
4. Diet: Offer a balanced diet with plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. These can provide additional moisture and nutrients, keeping your poultry healthy and hydrated. Nettex Poultry feeds and supplements are formulated to meet all their nutritional needs.
5. Dust Baths: Ensure your birds have access to dust baths. Dust baths help control parasites and keep their feathers in good condition. Provide a designated area with dry, loose soil or sand.

Keeping your poultry happy and healthy in summer is easy with the right care and products. Visit us online to explore our full range of Nettex Poultry products and Chicksoft bedding.
