Quarter 2 – Module 1:
Feed Chicken
(Select suitable feeding materials available in the locality and nutrient
requirements of chicken)
 What I Need to Know
This module was designed and written with you in mind. It is here to help
you master the nature of Organic Agriculture. The scope of this module permits it
to be used in many different learning situations. The language used recognizes the
diverse vocabulary level of students. The lessons are arranged to follow the
standard sequence of the course. But the order in which you read them can be
changed to correspond with the textbook you are now using.

After going through this module, you are expected to:

1. identify common ingredients used in formulating feeds;

2. recognize suitable feeding materials available in the locality for chickens;

3. distinguish appropriate feeding materials for chickens.

Lesson

1 FEED CHICKEN
In this module, a suitable feeding material for chicken is discussed. It is
intended for your learning on different feeding materials that are available in the
locality. Weekly activities are lined up for you to perform and answer. Enjoy
funfilled learning in this module.

What’s In

Direction: Using a graphic organizer write the common ingredients needed in

formulating broiler feeds. Do this in your notebook.

Notes to the Teacher

This contains helpful tips or strategies
that will help you in guiding the
learners.

 What’s New

Chickens need a balanced diet of protein, carbohydrates, vitamins,

and minerals. Protein is particularly important for growing chickens and for
producing eggs. A good layer will stop producing as many eggs if she doesn’t
have enough protein in her diet.
Purposes of Feeding Broilers
Broilers are fed to supply nutrients needed for their growth,
maintenance, and reproduction. Broilers are marketed at a very young age
(six to eight weeks). They need the maximum amount of nutrients for the
rapid development of their bones and muscle. Layers also need nutrients to
increase this production of eggs and to replace worn-out body tissue during
egg production.
Functions of Feeds
Feeds are utilized by the broiler for the following reasons:

1. To sustain life. The bulk of feed consumed by the broiler is used to

sustain life. What is over and above the requirement for sustenance is used
for growth reproduction.
2. To promote growth. A broiler must have enough feed for its growth, as it
is raised for its meat.
3. To reproduce. Mature chicken needs more feeds than younger ones to
sustain life and to reproduce.

 What is It

requirements of chicken

Common Ingredients used in Formulating Broiler Feeds

You must be familiar with the common feed ingredients that supply
nutrients. Sources of Carbohydrate and Fat

A. Yellow corn. Yellow corn is one of the best grains for fattening chickens.
It consists of eight to nine percent crude protein. It gives energy and is low
in fiber, making it highly digestible and palatable. It contains vitamin A and
yellow pigmenting compounds.

B. Rice bran. Rice bran is palatable to poultry of all ages. There are two
types of this by-product on the market, the “cono” rice bran and the
“kiskisan” rice bran. The cono rice bran contains about 11% percent
protein. The kiskisan rice bran contains about six 6% percent protein. It is
usually high in fiber and contains an adequate amount of fat.

C. Copra meal. Copra meal is the by-product of coconut meat after the oil
has been removed from it. It contains about 20% protein. It is the most
common and cheapest source of plant protein.

4
D. Corn gluten feed. Corn gluten is a combination of corn gluten and corn
bran mixed in such a proportion as to contain 25% percent protein. It is a
good source of carbohydrates.

E. Molasses. Molasses is the cheapest source of carbohydrate. It is a

byproduct of the manufacture of sugar.

Sources of Protein

A. Fish meal. Fish meal is a good source of high-quality protein. It contains

about 60% to 65% protein. It also contains an adequate amount of
carbohydrates and fat.

B. Soybean oil meal. Soybean oil meal contains about 44% crude protein
and is also a good source of energy. This is the only plant source that can
replace animal protein in the diet.

5
C. Shrimp meal. Shrimp meal, when dried and ground, is a good source of
protein. It contains about 56% crude protein but is low in energy. It may be
used as a substitute for fish meal.

What’s More

and sources of protein. Identify the statements below and choose the best
answer inside the box. Copy and answer in your notebook.

_________ 1. A good substitute for fish meal.

removed from it. It contains 20% protein and is also the most common and
cheapest source of plant protein.
7. Corn gluten is a combination of corn gluten and corn bran mixed in such
a proportion as to contain 25% protein.
8. Molasses is the cheapest source of carbohydrate.
9. The sources of protein are fish meal, soybean oil meal, shrimp meal.
10. Fish meal is a good source of high-quality protein and contains 60%-
65%.
11. Soybean oil meal contains 44% crude protein and is also a good source
of energy. It is the only plant source that can replace animal protein in the
diet.
12. Shrimp meal may be used as a substitute for fish meal.

What I Can Do

Instruction: Gather different kinds of green feeds in your garden. Chop them
finely and place them in a separate feeder. Give it to your layer as green
feeds. Observe which of these chopped green feeds are most likely to be
eaten by the birds and make a narrative report based on your observation.
Write your observations in your activity notebook and submit to the teacher.

Narrative questions:
1. What preparations you have made for doing the activity?
