Vitamin Deficiency in Chickens
Vitamin and mineral deficiencies produce countless health problems for poultry, including higher mortality and issues with egg production and egg quality. After years of research with our poultry supplements, we have scientifically proven that Big Ole Bird vastly increases nutrient uptake, so we developed this quality poultry multivitamin to boost performance and well-being even more. Catalyst is packed with a specially formulated, poultry-specific combination of vitamins and minerals that maximize performance.
Poultry Diets and Vitamins
The majority of time and effort is spent on the poultry diet, where most of the emphasis is placed on feed. Often the levels of vitamins in the diet of a flock is directly related to the calculated feed allotment that is managed by the integrator or farmer. This plays an important role in optimizing a flock because birds are limited to naturally occurring vitamins from free-range activities.
Fat Soluble Vitamins
With vitamins in poultry feed, the predominant focus is placed on fat-soluble vitamins. The fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K are stored for long periods of time. If there is not a balanced correlation with the water-soluble vitamins, then a higher risk of imbalance, poor performance and toxicity may occur.
When birds get a proper balance of fatty acids, amino acids, water-soluble vitamins and fat-soluble vitamins, then the immune system is greatly strengthened, and the immune response to diseases and other challenges is increased.
If you are seeking to increase the health of your broiler chickens, game birds, turkey or laying hens, then look no further. Catalyst is the performance boost you need!

With vitamins in poultry feed, the predominant focus is placed on fat-soluble vitamins. The fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K are stored for long periods of time. If there is not a balanced correlation with the water-soluble vitamins like those in Catalyst, then a higher risk of imbalance, poor performance and toxicity may occur in your flock.
When birds get a proper balance of fatty acids, amino acids, water-soluble vitamins and fat-soluble vitamins, then the immune system is greatly strengthened, and the immune response to diseases and other challenges is increased. Because of this, Catalyst is a great option to increase the health of your broiler chickens, game birds, turkey or laying hens!
Vitamin K3 helps birds’ bodies process calcium and Vitamin D. It also promotes blood health. You can give your birds heavy doses of calcium and Vitamin D in their diet, but without enough K3, their bodies simply don’t have what they need to use it. This would lead to poor shell quality, a drop in egg production, brittle bones and other health issues.
Birds that take Catalyst have better leg and bone development, plus healthier hearts, skin and blood. Folic acid is included in Catalyst to encourage feather growth and reproductive health and prevent poor feathering. Vitamin D3 improves shell quality and bone health. Biotin prevents dermatitis around the eyes and on the feet.
It's absolutely possible for chickens to experience a vitamin deficiency. Just like you and me, the best way to fix a lack of essential vitamins is through a vitamin supplement!
Yes, it's better to run them together. Since Big Ole Bird helps with nutrient absorption, birds can get more out of the vitamins in Catalyst when used with Big Ole Bird.
While Catalyst is a complete multivitamin for chickens, it does not contain calcium. However, it does contain essential key vitamins that will help your bird better absorb calcium.
