needed minerals and vitamins to encourage fast, efficient growth.

Performance-focused Pen Pals poultry products provide wholesome, natural-sourced, unique ingredients to support wholesome, healthy, and stress-free birds.

• 18% protein: Helps develop the bird’s laying potential.
• Does not contain animal products and animal by-products: Appeals to poultry enthusiasts who prefer to raise chickens without the use of animal-sourced ingredients.
• Mineral and vitamin fortification: Provides nutrients necessary for optimum growth and nutrients essential for a properly functioning immune system, which is vital to good health.
• Complexed zinc: More readily available for absorption compared to inorganic sources of zinc. Zinc is important for immunity, reproduction, skin and claw integrity, muscle development, and eggshell quality.
• Empirical® NSP Enzyme: A multi-enzyme, non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) that helps enable poultry to better utilize fibrous ration components by improving digestibility and availability of sugars from NSPs (better energy utilization of ration components), allowing more energy to become available for production purposes.
• CitriStim®: An ADM proprietary feed ingredient that may help poultry strengthen their defense against health challenges by supporting and optimizing gut function, gut integrity, and body defense responses.
• Portion of vitamin E is natural-source: Vital to immune system function; research shows natural-source vitamin E is more bioavailable compared with synthetic vitamin E.
• Phytase: Effective in increasing utilization of phosphorus from plant sources which reduces amount of supplemental phosphorus needed in the ration and reduces excretion of phosphorus into the environment.
• Medicated with amprolium and bacitracin: Promotes growth and feed efficiency; prevents coccidiosis.
• Crumble form: Ensures pullets/cockerels receive balanced nutrition (no sorting of ingredients) and reduces feed waste.
