- They are "green": omnivores, they eat vegetable peelings, pasta, salads, cheese, herbs, etc. (up to 150 kg of organic waste per year), and also devour vegetable garden waste (carrot tops, pea pods, etc.). In exchange, they provide fertilizer for your plants (their droppings are very rich);
- They are a gardener's helper: they feast on slugs, snails and other insect pests. They help weed the garden: thanks to them, no more moss in the lawn and no more scarifiers! In the orchard, they provide pleasant shade, and by pecking under the fruit trees, they clean the soil of all pests, acting preventively against disease and attack.

What feed should I choose for my chickens and poultry?
Nutritional requirements
A balanced diet is essential for growth, egg production and overall poultry health. Nutritional requirements vary according to
- Age: chicks, laying hens and broilers have specific requirements.
- Production: Laying hens require more calcium and protein to support eggshell formation.
- Breeding method: Free-range poultry often supplement their diet by pecking around in their environment.
Essential components
- Protein: Promotes muscle growth and egg production. Sources include soy, legumes and adapted animal meals.
- Energy: Provided by cereals such as corn, wheat and barley.
- Calcium and Minerals: Essential for strong eggshells and healthy bones.
- Vitamins: Vitamins A, D and E are particularly important for growth, immunity and reproduction.
Pellets and specific mixes are formulated to meet the exact needs of poultry. Access to clean, fresh water is just as vital, as hydration directly influences digestion and egg-laying.
How do you create a good environment for your poultry?
Chickens and poultry require well-designed infrastructures to guarantee their well-being:
- Hen houses: should be spacious, well-ventilated, with adequate lighting. Each bird should have enough space to move around freely and adopt its natural behaviors.
- Nests: Essential for laying hens, they should be clean, dry and comfortable.
- Perches: Chickens prefer to sleep high up. Perches reduce stress and the risk of nest contamination.
Regular maintenance of the coop prevents the spread of disease. Essential actions include :
- Frequent cleaning of litter boxes to remove droppings.
- Periodic disinfection of drinkers and feeders.
- Control of external parasites, such as red lice.
Free-range poultry benefit from conditions closer to their natural behavior. Outdoor runs should be well drained, with mud-free ground to prevent infection.
What are the most common poultry diseases?
Here are the most common poultry diseases:
Respiratory diseases
Poultry are susceptible to respiratory diseases such as :
- Infectious bronchitis: Caused by a coronavirus, it affects the respiratory tract and reduces egg-laying.
- Mycoplasmosis: Causes sneezing, coughing and sinus swelling.
Digestive diseases
- Coccidiosis: A common intestinal parasite that causes diarrhea and weight loss.
- Salmonellosis: Transmissible to humans, it causes serious digestive disorders in poultry.
Parasites
- Red lice: These external parasites cause anemia and stress, reducing egg production.
- Intestinal worms: Affect growth and productivity.
Nutritional deficiencies
- Lack of calcium leads to brittle eggshells.
- Vitamin D deficiency causes bone disorders.
How to prevent disease in chickens and poultry?
- Vaccination: Preventive vaccination protects poultry against the main infectious diseases, such as infectious bronchitis, Marek's disease and coccidiosis.
- Deworming: Regular deworming eliminates intestinal parasites and reduces their impact on poultry health. Suitable products should be administered according to a precise schedule, respecting withdrawal periods for eggs and meat.
- Parasite control : The use of natural or chemical insecticide powders, combined with meticulous cleaning, helps limit red lice infestations.
- Monitoring: Daily observation of poultry helps to detect signs of disease at an early stage. Behavioral changes, decreases in egg-laying, or changes in feather appearance require immediate intervention.
