Get your birds off to the best start by protecting them from harmful bacteria

WHY BROILACT® ?
When chicks hatch in a natural environment, bacteria from the adult hen colonise their gut. This protects them against undesirable bacteria, such as Salmonella, and E. coli. In commercial rearing, newly hatched chicks encounter the bacteria left by previous crops of young birds. These are different bacteria from those originating from ‘adult birds. They do not provide protection and are undesirable or even harmful. Broilact®, given to newly hatched chicks, replaces the adult hen as a source of natural protection against harmful bacteria.

WHAT IS BROILACT® ?
Broilact® is a preparation of the complex mixture of bacteria that inhabit the gut of the healthy adult fowl. The Broilact® bacteria have been selected for their ability to line the gut and so minimise its colonisation by undesirable and harmful bacteria. Broilact® is prepared by a unique patented process. It contains a guaranteed minimum number of viable bacteria and every batch is tested for effectiveness before release.

WHAT DOES BROILACT® DO ?
Broilact® dramatically reduces colonisation of the gut by undesirable bacteria. This means they cause less damage to the gut lining, and they can be removed more easily by the bird’s natural defence mechanisms.

THE BACTERIA AFFECTED ARE

• Salmonella
• E. coli
• Yersinia enterocolitica
• Campylobacter
• Clostridium perfringens

In scientific trials, Broilact® has been proved highly effective in poultry and pheasants. This is also backed by the experience of commercial poultry and pheasant producers, who report good results in chicks sprayed with Broilact® at day-old, compared with untreated birds.
