What do poultry like to eat?

1, the basic dietary needs of birds

Domestic birds like to eat all kinds of millet and seeds, such as rice, millet, glutinous rice, oats, wheat, corn, soybeans, sesame seeds, almonds and so on. In addition, they need vegetables, fruits and supplements from protein. Because they can't search for food as freely as birds in nature, we need to ensure that domestic birds can get enough nutrition to ensure healthy growth.

2. Vegetables and fruits suitable for birds.

Poultry can eat many vegetables and fruits, such as spinach, carrots, cucumbers, pumpkins, beets, tofu, apples, pears, grapes, bananas and so on. Some fruits and vegetables have high water content. Giving birds a proper amount of these vegetables and fruits can meet their daily water needs and increase nutritional diversity.

3. Birds need protein.

Birds need a certain amount of protein to meet the needs of growth and reproduction. The protein source of poultry can be grains and beans rich in protein, or special nutrition for birds. But too much protein is not good for birds' health, and they need a proper amount of protein for daily intake and supplement.

4. Food unsuitable for birds.

Some foods are harmful to poultry. These foods include greasy foods, junk foods, high-fat foods, foods containing flavoring agents, foods containing artificial colors and chemicals, and so on. Using expired and unwashed ingredients is also not suitable for birds. Some human foods may be harmful to the health of birds. We should avoid feeding these foods to birds.
