Biostrong C-Protect

Raising layers for egg production is a long game with significant upfront investment.

Supporting performance and bird livability is paramount for business sustainability. One of the many challenges impacting laying hens is Avian pathogenic e. coli (APEC), an opportunistic challenge that impacts at least 30% of U.S. commercial layers flocks¹ resulting in decreased egg production, increased bird mortality and significant economic losses, especially during peak egg production.

Biostrong™ C-Protect gives you confidence

Science-driven support

Biostrong C-Protect delivers science-driven health support by combining two unique product categories – a postbiotic (XPC™) with a phytogenic. This unique combination:

Supports bird immunity and enhances gut health.
Has been shown to help layers become more resilient to APEC challenges.

A proven advantage

Biostrong C-Protect, as part of good farm practices, helps mitigate the effects of APEC, improving bird well-being and egg production during a challenge.

Helps reduce pre-harvest foodborne pathogens through the industry recognized XPC™ postbiotic technology.
One product helps solve two common layer challenges, reducing the need for micro bin space in the feed mill.
