Aloe Vera for Chickens
by christine tushabe
(kampala , uganda)
Thanks for the information and well organized
work.
I have read about aloe vera being helpful as a
herbal medicine in hens. Can more information be
got in detail and what it can help.
Thanks a lot.
Christine,
Uganda
**************************************************
Christine,
It is a fairly tough old plant that can take a lot of
abuse. It grows really big over the years and will
throw out baby plants from the mother plant if
you allow it to get that big. To propagate, just
take these baby plants, twist off and plant.
Using aloe vera for chickens is an interesting
subject. Aloe vera extract given to broilers in the
Philippines at a rate of 3-4 teaspoons of aloe vera
extract, per 1 gallon of drinking water found that
the broilers grew bigger and faster than those
broilers who had not been fed the extract. So if
you are raising organic broilers aloe vera is
definitely an option to get those broilers to fatten
up quickly and naturally.
Aloe vera is also rich in vitamins, minerals and
enzymes that promotes overall good health in
chickens. Vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, C,
and E can all be found in Aloe Vera.
Minerals found are calcium, chromium, copper,
iron, magnesium, manganese, potassium,
phosphorus, sodium and zinc.
Therefore, it stands to reason that if your
chickens will eat aloe vera, they will definitely
benefit from it. However, I have chickens that are
very fussy, know exactly what they like, and what
they don't and don't always eat what is good for
them, so you will have to experiment with yours
to see if they will take to it. If they won't eat it,
you can always medicate their water with the aloe
vera juice.
Aloe vera for chickens has also been used to treat
bumblefoot and scaly leg. Here is a recipe.
2 tablespoons aloe vera leaf, finely chopped
1 tablespoons water
1/2 teaspoon olive Oil
1 cap tea tree oil
Blitz up in a blender and apply. Mixture should be
thick enough to apply without it falling off.
You can use the juice from the aloe vera leaf just
plain as well on any wounds or scratches that
your chickens get. Just squeeze the juice from
the leaf directly onto the wounds as aloe vera is
nature's antibiotic.
Just as you can add apple cider vinegar to your
chickens' water as an overall benefit for good
health, so you can do the same by adding aloe
vera juice. Even a teaspoon of Manuka honey in
the chickens' water will do wonders for them and
is a good addition if your chickens are sick.
In Africa, where aloe vera originates, local farmers
who do not have access to more expensive,
commercial medicines rely heavily on aloe vera for
their poultry health and well being, especially to
cure more serious diseases such as coccidiosis,
Marek's disease and Newcastle disease in
chickens.
Leaves are taken, crushed and added to the
drinking water and given in this way until the
diseases are gone from their flocks. Recovery of
the chickens from the aloe vera treatment was
quick and usually within a 7 day period after
being given the aloe vera.
I would suggest 3 teaspoons of juice in a gallon
of water for best results to treat coccidiosis in
chickens with aloe vera.
Aloe vera is a succulent that is extremely good for
burns, insect bites for humans, and mores
besides.
To get the best out of aloe vera grow the plant
either in your garden if you have a climate that
will support succulents, or in a pot as a
household plant.
Using aloe vera on chickens as a topical
application, as well as an internal medicinal
application can also be given.
There are no side effects and aloe vera for
chickens quite safe to us.
Regards
Kathryn
