Poultry
An appropriate supplementation program at the beginning of the chick’s life ensures a shorter fattening period and high economic profit. Therefore, it is important to administer appropriate doses of vitamins and supplements, especially sodium butyrate.
This supports the intensive growth of the birds beginning immediately after administering. It also improves the development of intestinal villi, increases intestinal absorption surface, enhances digestion and the functions of the liver. Broiler producers often complain of differences in poultry growth rates in their flocks. The reason for this, among others, is the lack of rapid resorption of the yolk sac during the first days of fattening. This is associated with negligence in the initial stages of the birds’ life, resulting in a prolonged fattening period and causing economic loses.
INTERMAG suggests the use of:
• SUPLEXAN® ADEK Premium
• SUPLEXAN® INTRO
Benefits
facilitation of proper development of the gastrointestinal tract
support for yolk sac resorption
regulation of liver functions
electrolyte supplementation
limited diarrhoea and indigestion incidence
improved feed intake and digestibility
SUPLEXAN® ADEK Premium is a composition of vitamins A, D3, E, K. Preparation supplements the animal diet with fat-soluble vitamins. Particularly recommended for supplementing the daily dose in a starter period, when these vitamins are essential for normal growth and development of natural immunity to diseases.
SUPLEXAN® INTRO is a mixture of vitamins, herbal extracts, and lysine and sodium butyrate. The product is intended to stimulate the growth and development of the gastrointestinal tract in young animals.
The rapid growth of birds accompanied by low feed and water intake along with a high utilisation rate are key factors in the large-scale breeding of poultry.
Regulations of the European Union have introduced certain limitations for breeders. A ban on the use of all types of chemotherapeutics contrary to their intended use wasone of them. Feed monitoring and more thorough post-slaughter inspections have forced feed producers to change their attitude towards animal feeding.
Wishing to follow the new trends in consumer demands, breeders are more likely to use complementary feeds that not only accelerate growth but also complement so-called organic or sustainable food chains.
INTERMAG suggests the use of:
• SUPLEXAN® ALLIUM
• SUPLEXAN® KARNI
• MUSCULATON
• RAPID-BIOTIC
Benefits
stimulation of muscular development
increased feed intake, utilisation and nutrient absorption
increased water utilisation
enhanced appetite
weight loss compensation
increased growth rate

It contains amino acids and herbal extracts that stimulate the action of the digestive system, improve feed intake and contribute to muscular development rather than fat.
RAPID-BIOTIC is a stabilizer of the intestinal microflora, based on Bacillus subtilis bacteria, enriched with oregano extract.
The product should be used in conditions of intensive livestock production, in cases of poorer production results and in order to increase the immunity of animals.
Breeders of laying hens often face the problem of thin eggshells. This results in an increased number of cracked eggs during handling and transportation. Such an abnormality can be caused not only by decreased calcium content in the feed, but also by reduced calcium absorption in the digestive tract. This disfunction is mainly causedby vitamin D3 deficiency and is often accompanied by impaired vitamin metabolism.
The problem of thin eggshells is usually managed by additional calcium and vitamin D3 supplementation. However, even supplementation with high Ca and vitamin doses does not solve the problem of thin eggshells completely. The key is a proper Ca:P ratio (2:1) in complementary feeds. The appropriate complementary feed provides not only calcium and vitamin D3, but also phosphorus, which is more significant than total calcium dose.
INTERMAG suggests the use of:
• SUPLEXAN® D3 CALC
Benefits
increased resistance of eggshells to mechanical damage
improved eggshell quality
enhanced bone mineralisation
extended productivity of laying hens
vitamin D3 and manganese supplementation
mitigation of muscle contracture and joint pain
restoration of proper calcium and phosphorus ratio
SUPLEXAN® D3 CALC is a complex formulation intended for bone structure strengthening. The product contains high vitamin D3, calcium and phosphorus content (in the right ratio of 2:1).
The success of breeding flock owners depends on appropriate fertility levels.
The correct development of the reproductive system is correlated, among others, with vitamin E and selenium levels in the bird’s body and the proper supplementation of these nutrients.
The maintenance of poultry for reproduction and intensive breeding of laying hens is also impossible without appropriate biotin, zinc, and exogenous amino acid supplementation.
INTERMAG suggests the use of:
• SUPLEXAN® VIGOR
• SUPLEXAN® BIOTIN
• AFTER-BIOTIC

AFTER-BIOTIC – is a composition of microencapsulated strains of lactic acid bacteria:
• Carnobacterium divergens
• Lactococcus lactis
• Lactobacillus casei
• Lactobacillus plantarum
The purpose of the product is to limit the development of pathogenic intestinal flora and to improve the digestibility of feed.
Modern poultry breeders may face the problem of poor growth after a switch to a grower or finisher feed.
One of the main reasons for this is the high content of energy and protein substrates in the feed. Regulatory support for hepatic and pancreatic function is necessary to improve the birds’ performance. Due to their detoxifying, metabolic, filtrating, storage and digestive functions, these organs are primarily responsible for the proper outcome of the breeding process. Intensive feeding, breeding or antibiotic therapy may impair these organs and lead to hepatic degeneration. In many cases, the result is a reduced duration of the animal’s life.
INTERMAG suggests the use of:
• SUPLEXAN® HEPA effectively protects and supports the functions of the liver and pancreas. A high content of turmeric extract improves the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats, as well as the absorption of proteins. SUPLEXAN® HEPA stimulates bile secretion, which results in increased appetite and feed utilisation.
Benefits
regulation of liver and pancreas functions
support of the liver during feeding with high-energy feed
support for fatty liver syndrome treatment
mitigation of the effects of intoxication and antibiotic treatment
liver protection during high productivity periods
SUPLEXAN® HEPA is a composition of herbal extracts, carnitine, choline, betaine, and magnesium. The product is intended to stimulate appetite and metabolism. It regulates the function of the liver and pancreas, as well as accelerates detoxification and elimination of toxins from the body. SUPLEXAN® HEPA is also recommended during periods of increased burden on the body, such as: fattening, lactation or change of diet.
In periods when feeds with high protein content are used, increased urinary calcium excretion occurs. This may result in the development of gout and kidney stones.
Furthermore, antibiotic treatments lead to the accumulation of toxins in the organism. In the case of impaired renal function, this may result in a prolonged inhibition of animal performance. To prevent gout, kidney stones and to regulate urine calcium management and detoxification, appropriate feed supplementation is necessary.
INTERMAG suggests the use of:
• SUPLEXAN® REN
Benefits
prevention of gout
supplementation during kidney stone treatment
regulation of renal and hepatic functions
supplementation in urogenital diseases
limitation of adverse effects of antibiotic treatments

Coccidiosis is one of the most serious poultry diseases worldwide.
For many years, the problem of coccidiosis has been solved by the use of chemoprophylaxis.
Due to the increasing resistance of these parasites to existing solutions, it is reasonable to use plantextract-based products with proven anti-coccidial effect as a preventative measure. KOKCIDIN® is a composition of carefully selected natural plant extracts demonstrating prophylactic anti-coccidial activity.
The composition of KOKCIDIN® was developed and analysed by a team of experts in poultry nutrition. Its formulation demonstrates bacteriostatic and immunostimulatory activity. It may also be implemented as a solution to the problem of increased protozoal resistance to standard pharmaceuticals and consumer expectations regarding the quality of poultry meat and eggs. The positive effect of KOKCIDIN® is not only due to its direct effects on the parasites,but also results from the complex, broad activity of the compounds it contains. Among others effects, the stabilisation of bacterial flora (bacteriostatic activity), the stimulation of intestinal villi regeneration, the alleviation of intestinal inflammation, and the activation of immune processes have been confirmed.

The basic broiler feeding program is divided into three main periods, in which three different types of feed are used: starter, grower and finisher.
The beginning of every feeding phase is the time when the birds switch from one type of feed to another and are often vaccinated. This may cause a temporary decrease in food uptake and birds may be more susceptible to stress factors, which may result in lowered weight gain. To prevent the adverse effects of this feed switch and environmental stress factors like heat or dust, it is advised to supplement the birds’ diet with appropriate reinforcing feed additives.
INTERMAG suggests the use of:
• SUPLEXAN® ADEK Premium
Benefits
positively affects functioning of reproductive, digestive, cardiovascular (clotting) muscular (prevents muscular dystrophy muscle and cachexy) and skeletal systems
prevents vitamin deficiency in embryos and chicks
stimulates immune function and enhances immunity
reduces level of deaths of young animals
improves production parameters
prevents nyctalopia pterophagia, cannibalism

SUPLEXAN® ADEK Premium is a composition of vitamins A, D3, E, K. Preparation supplements the animal diet with fat-soluble vitamins. Particularly recommended for supplementing the daily dose in a starter period, when these vitamins are essential for normal growth and development of natural immunity to diseases.
Stress, vaccinations and nutrient deficiency – all these factors severely weaken poultry and contribute to lowered breeding parameters and decrease final income. Vaccinations are absolutely essential in modern broiler breeding.
Nevertheless, temporary adverse effects of vaccination can be manifested as asthenia and temporarily higher susceptibility to disease. This may be reflected in a reduced final breeding effectiveness. Additionally, all feeding changes and transportation involve stress which may lead to negative long-term breeding consequences if not managed at an early stage. Stress management is difficult and often unsuccessful, thus immunostimulation and immunoprophylaxis are of high importance. Early prophylaxis to enhance non-specific immunity is more effective and less costly than medical treatment when diseases appear.

Vaccinations and antibiotic treatments may cause temporarily severe effects in animals.
When necessary, they are used to prevent the occurrence of diseases or to cure sick birds. However, there are also disadvantages associated with their use.
All drug residues and metabolites are to a greater of lesser degree toxic. These residues and metabolites can be found in the liver, kidneys, and muscles. To achieve satisfactory results in breeding, birds should be supplemented with feed additives enhancing the elimination of toxic substances and the restoration of homeostasis. Increased diuresis and supplementation with vitamins allow a higher feed intake to be achieved and shorten the fattening period.

In poultry breeding programs, it is necessary to provide the proper amount of nutrients in a balanced ratio.
Very often when stress, excessive stocking density or deficiencies of some nutrients occur, birds pluck their feathers. Moreover, the bird’s digits, feathers and skin are extremely sensitive to zinc and biotin deficiencies. Thus, to achieve satisfactory poultry breeding results, it is necessary to provide easily absorbable compounds.
Biotin has an essential impact on the development of full and healthy feathers with high elasticity, while zinc positively influences the strengthening of digits and ensures the high quality of the birds’ feet. Healthy feathers, digits as well as appropriate preparation for moulting are essential for poultry welfare and higher carcass quality. Dietary supplementation with the abovementioned ingredients also plays a supporting role in the treatment of skin inflammations. Skin damage results primarily in local alopecia, which consequently leads to deterioration of living conditions and a decline in productivity. The quick implementation of treatment strategies may save flocks from problems related to low hatchability or low egg laying levels.

Acidification of feed is practiced to maintain proper stomach and gut acidity (pH regulation). This prevents the development of microbial pathogens, with the protective effect being strongest when the pH range is between 6.0 and 7.5, and weakest when pH is between 4.0 and 5.5.
Acidifiers in animal feeds provide a protective barrier against pathogens, strengthen the immune system, and promote favourable conditions for digestion and absorption of feed components. They lower the amount of toxic ammonia and biogenic amines in the small intestine, improving protein, mineral and lipid absorption.
INTERMAG suggests the use of:
