We supply broiler grower pellets which are aimed at achieving higher growth rates, higher feed utilization rates, and low disease incidences at the early stage of life of growing broiler birds.
- The most common cause of problems in poultry production is the failure to provide commercially prepared feeds.
- The second most common problem is the failure to use a fortified supplement in the correct proportions.
- Without a nutritionally balanced ration, birds will suffer from poor feathering, slow growth, leg problems, and other complications.
- Our well-formulated feed is the premium solution to the nutritional problems battling broiler production in the country (and beyond).
Facts about broiler grower pellets
Grower feed is basically the dietary requirements for broiler birds between 3 to 5 weeks old. Essentially grower feed contains a protein content that is between 16-18% because of the need for adequate accumulation of body weight (carcass weight). Thus, it supports the continuous growth of the broilers while supplying them with continual nutritional supplementation to enhance this fast-growing stage.
- The Hendrix brand for growers is specially formulated and uniquely enriched with performance-enhancing additives for growing birds.

Poultry feeds
Unlike feeds for ruminants, poultry diets are usually complete feeds and supply the total daily requirements, apart from water. These feeds help to maximize production be it for eggs, meat, or rearing replacements. Essentially, broiler varieties of chicken feeds are denser in protein, which encourages the flock to grow bigger, faster.
Floor space, feeder space, and drinker space
The floor space requirement of broilers varies depending on their body weight at the point of marketing, housing systems, marketing age, and ambient temperature. The feeder and drinker space also varies depending on the environmental temperature and the health condition of the birds. The following table contains the approximate floor, feeder, and drinker space requirement for broilers.
Age | Floor space/ bird | Feeder space/ bird | Drinker space/bird |
Up to 18 days |
450 cm² (0.5 sq.ft.) |
3 cm | 1.5 cm |
From 19 days to 42 days | 1000 cm² (1.1 sq.ft.) | 6-7 cm | 3 cm |
