Like any person, birds need vitamins. In order to grow a strong and healthy flock, you need to constantly and regularly give your pets vitamins or purchase compound feed with vitamin supplements. Trivitamin P preparation for chickens is a universal remedy that helps to raise immunity, thanks to the vitamins that it contains.
Trivitamin P for chickens
Composition and action
Trivitamin for chickens is a universal remedy that delivers missing vitamins to the growing body of chickens, as well as minerals. All vitamins and minerals contribute to the immune system of the chicken, becoming stronger and able to resist many diseases. Digestion improves and promotes good absorption of food. As a result, the growing flock of birds grows and develops in accordance with the norms of age and physiology.
Trivitamin P has its counterparts such as Trivit and Tetravit. In terms of composition, they are very similar to Trivitamin, but still, according to reviews of many poultry farmers and small farmers, Trivitamin works better and more efficiently. You can also buy these pharmaceutical drugs at any pharmacy without a doctor's prescription.
Category P trivitamin consists of many multivitamin complexes (A, E and D3). Often in the ampoule, along with the complex of vitamins, there is also soybean oil or vegetable oil. Each dose is selected individually for each chick for prophylactic or therapeutic purposes. Trivitamin looks like a liquid and oily solution. Usually the vitamin is yellow or light brown in color, it has a very specific smell, which is a characteristic feature of any vegetable oil. This mixture is insoluble in water.
According to the instructions for use of Trivitamin, this remedy can be given to chickens and turkey poults. Also, the medicine is great for other animals, the main thing is to observe the dosage for use for each separately. The composition of the capsules is excellent for the growing organism of goslings (1 capsule per 2 kg), piglets, as well as for the prevention of the calf. For prevention, such "vaccination" with Trivitamin is carried out in birds at the age of 5 to 8 days after birth. For the bird's immune system, it is a storehouse of the necessary vitamins and minerals for the proper growth and development of chicks.
Contraindications and packaging
There are 2 types of how this product is produced.

You can buy the medicine at any pharmacy or pet store. This tool is used by owners of large farms with a large volume of livestock and poultry. Especially for such cases, a large volume of Trivitamin was developed, it ranges from 5 to 36 liters, especially such a volume is convenient for veterinary organizations that specialize in caring for livestock. Also, the drug is used to treat diseases that affect the immune system. Even after a common cold, medicine can be given for prevention so that the bird can fully recover. We give the medicine immediately at the first symptoms of the disease in chickens or chicks.
There is no big difference between the solution, what is drunk and what is injected. Simply, for example, an injection can be injected into both chickens and chicks, but you need to be careful with the dosage, read the instructions and carefully select the dose for each. The dose depends on the weight of the chick or other animal.
If the dose is incorrectly selected, the bird will have an overdose, which can lead to a large intoxication of the body, and this can lead to the death of the animal. Such a medicine can be called a remedy for vitamin deficiency. It can be taken with other medications or dietary supplements. The shelf life of the drug is one year. It is advisable to store it in places where children cannot find it, where there is no moisture and direct sunlight. The average temperature at which you need to keep the medicine is from 2 to 16 ° C.
Trivitamin is great for chicks and is considered safe for them. It raises and stimulates immunity in animals well. The instructions do not say that there are any side effects, except for those cases when the animal received a dose more than it should. Since the drug does not contain any chemical or toxic elements, after slaughter the meat is not toxic or unsafe for humans. No negative effects on the body were noticed.
Indications for use
To prescribe the use of drops or injections, many veterinarians are guided by several rules, or rather the symptoms that may appear in chickens:
- the bird begins to see poorly (most often it is typical for broilers);
- problems with the digestive system begin, possibly a disorder;
- the number of feathers on the broiler's body is significantly reduced, bald spots appear on the body of the bird;
- the tempo of breathing is lost, the animal can begin to breathe sharply and deeply;
- manifestation of conjunctivitis.
If a bird has a lack of vitamin D, the amount of absorbed calcium immediately decreases, which means that the body does not receive the required amount of important elements, because of which the bird's claws begin to break and can be bred. It is also noticeable that the bird begins to walk poorly and fall to its feet.
The lack of vitamin E leads to the fact that the bird begins to lay less and almost every second egg is unfertilized. The symptom of this condition is loss of appetite, as a result of which pets begin to lose weight, and then throw their head back. It is very important to carefully study the indications for use!
Correct dosage
For the use of drugs for prevention or treatment for large groups, experts have brought their "golden mean". For weekly chicks, per 10 kg of feed, 5.16 ml of solution is needed (which must be taken orally). When the chicks grow up to one month of age, the dosage changes, then we give them not 5.16 per 10 kg, but 8.8 ml. It will already be possible to mix the compound feed with the solution.

Vitamins VITTRI-1 (trivitamin) for any poultry
In an individual approach to one bird, you need to carefully calculate the dose. P-grade trivitamin for normal breeds of chickens or broilers will be given in varying amounts. Care is required with the dosage of the drug, for example, chickens of meat and egg breeds need to be given only 5 drops of the solution orally, while the pets should already be 8-9 weeks old. 12 drops are given to broilers who are 5 weeks old.
The normal solution can be pipetted into the animal's throat directly. We give the drug every week for a month to prevent such a disease as vitamin deficiency. But the drug should not be given for more than one month! If the medicine is used when vitamin deficiency is already there, it must be drunk every day for a month, and then switch to 1 time per week. In this case, the drug is given within 2 months.
Thus, Trivitamin P is the most useful remedy for many groups of birds and animals on the farm. The main thing is to carefully read the indications for use, so as not to be mistaken with the dosage and not to destroy the livestock with your own hands. We give drops only after reading the instructions that come with the medicine.
