Dear Greg Mathis
I would like to ask you about the use of zinc sources, did you use them through drinking water or as feed additives?
And what are the regular requirements for broiler chickens?

Dear S.m. Ekramul Huque,

Nutritionists use 50% of dose of Zinc oxide in poultry if the source is proteinate form. Zinc proteinate manufactured at Zeus Biotech Ltd, India, has been studied extensively. If Zinc oxide level is 1 kg, then you can replace the same with 0.5 kg Zinc proteinate gives same performance
