These challenges can compromise&nbsp;the bird\u2019s&nbsp;gut integrity,&nbsp;leading to&nbsp;reduced&nbsp;nutrient absorption, and&nbsp;ultimately impacting&nbsp;overall&nbsp;performance. The first&nbsp;21 days&nbsp;of a chick\u2019s life are especially critical, as this is when the gut microbiome is&nbsp;developing,&nbsp;and the immune system is maturing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A healthy gut microbiome&nbsp;supports<sup>(<\/sup><sup>1,2,3)<\/sup>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"660\" height=\"237\" src=\"https:\/\/www.iff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-36072\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.iff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-2.png 660w, https:\/\/www.iff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-2-300x108.png 300w, https:\/\/www.iff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-2-400x144.png 400w, https:\/\/www.iff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-2-200x72.png 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maintaining&nbsp;this balance is essential for&nbsp;optimal&nbsp;flock performance, especially in systems where AGPs are being phased out.&nbsp;Traditionally, probiotics have been administered via feed. While effective, this method has limitations,&nbsp;particularly during times of reduced feed intake&nbsp;caused by&nbsp;stress or illness. Waterline probiotics&nbsp;provides&nbsp;an&nbsp;innovative&nbsp;solution&nbsp;to&nbsp;solve this challenge.
