Hi Rebecca
Thank you very much for your informative talk regarding Algae. I completely agree with you that Algae is a good source of DHA, EPA and other important nutrients. We can enrich these nutrients in meat and egg by providing Algae to their diets. I have an experience with Chlorella (Chlorella Vulgaris) products in broiler diet and found good results from liquid Chlorella. So, the Algae would be the future natural feed ingredients for the Animals as well as for human.
Best Wishes
