What is Probiotics?
What is Lactobacillus...Uses and effects on birds.

PROBIOTICSare a dietary supplement that increase the population of the ‘good’ bacteria (micro flora), which are needed in the intestinal tract in order to process food properly. The use of probiotics as a daily supplement has become a popular routine in the commercial poultry industry, particularly following antibiotic treatment.

One commonly known probiotic is called Lactobacillus Acidophilus, and is naturally occurring in some food such as yogurt. But direct application through a liquid or powdered form mixed into drinking water is the most effective route.

Good bacteria also help fight off the bad bacteria that passes through the system, before it has a chance to take hold. Introducing probiotics into the digestive system everyday to ward off bacterial infection is known as ‘selective exclusion’.

Selective exclusion is a very good way to keep your birds healthy and disease resistant throughout their life. I use probiotics in my own flock, along with a vitamin and mineral supplement on a daily basis. I also use probiotics before, during, and after both showing and breeding.

For showing, the probiotics help the birds ward off most illnesses they could become exposed to in that environment.

For breeding, one benefit is the tendency of the laying hens to drink more water, when the water is treated with flavored probiotics. Both breeding and showing are very stressful times in your birds’ lives, and the vulnerability to disease increases during those times. The use of probiotics helps to reduce that vulnerability.

During times of stress or the use of antibacterials (antibiotics), hormonal changes can occur, causing the pH of the small intestine to rise. This allows existing bad bacteria to take a foothold in the lining of the intestine because of the deterioration of the protective mucus lining. Because of this, the ‘villi’ (little fingers), which normally exist in the small intestine, can be lost. Villi slow the movement of food as it passes through so that nutrients can be absorbed through the intestinal wall. The term ‘going light’ can occur when villi are lost. Increasing good gut bacteria through the use of probiotics will compete against the bad bacteria, change the pH environment, allow nutrient absorption, and prevent infection. Probiotic treatment has also shown an ability to stimulate appetite – a valuable thing when trying to maintain the weight of an ailing bird.

If you’re not inclined to use probiotics on a daily basis, then at least consider their use immediately following antibiotic treatment. When your bird is treated with antibiotics, all bacteria are killed off – good and bad. Treating with probiotics immediately after the use of antibiotics, help to repopulate the gut with the good bacteria. In many cases, this can ward off a secondary infection, such as E Coli. E. Coli has been shown to exist in virtually all manure samples, but only becomes a problem when the digestive environment is friendly to its reproduction.

Here are two ways you can introduce probiotics into your birds’ diet. If you have a very small flock, GNC (in most shopping malls), sells a flavored liquid version of L. Acidophilus. I’ve used that at the rate of .7cc per bantam per day in their drinking water. If you have a large flock, consider a powdered version that you also mix into the drinking water.

Rinse a cup or so of rice in a few cups of water. The water will get cloudy as it picks up starches from the rice. Remove the rice and cook it for dinner or throw it into your compost pile. What we are after is the starchy water.

Take your dish of starchy water and find a safe place you can leave it for 3-7 days. I suggest somewhere warm and out of the way so it doesn’t get spilled or disturbed. I usually keep mine in the kitchen on top of the fridge, since its slightly warm and will stay undisturbed. Bacteria from the environment will be attracted to the starchy water and will colonize the liquid in your dish.

Loosely covered rice wash collecting bacteria on my dirty counter.

After a few days, the liquid will start to separate into three distinct layers:

Top- floating solids and maybe a little mold or funky stuff growing.
Middle- Cloudy liquid full of native bacteria, including Lactobacillus
Bottom- Sinking solids, rice bits, etc.
The middle layer is what we are after, so separate it from the rest and move it to a larger jar or container. The easiest way is to use your turkey baster to suck it up and transfer it to a jar. If you don’t have a baster, you can skim the top layer off and carefully pour the middle layer into a new container. However you do it, try to isolate the middle layer. It doesn’t have to be perfect, so just do your best to separate the middle layer without taking too much of the top or bottom layers.

Step 2: Add milk so the Lactobacillus takes over the culture-

Native Bacteria cultures ready to add milk.

So now that we have our culture containing a diverse group of native bacteria, its time to separate out the Lactobacillius. As you may have guessed, Lactobacillus LOVE milk, specifically the sugar lactose. By adding lots of milk to our collection of wild bacteria, we will encourage the Lactobacillus to take over and dominate the culture. Before long they will take it over completely, and we will be left with only the Lactobacillus we are after.

In a large jar or container, combine about 10 parts milk to 1 part of your native bacteria culture from step one.

So for every 100 mL of culture from step one, you will need about one liter of milk.

Measurements don’t need to be exact, but make sure to leave a few inches of room at the top of your container. Loosely cover it, but don’t seal it completely air tight. We are trying to keep outside air from getting in, but still want the container to be able to vent excess gas if it needs to. You could also use an airlock lid on your container like I am doing.

Leave it undisturbed for 5-10 days at room temperature.

After a few days, the bacteria + milk mixture will start to separate into layers.

At the top, a cheesy layer will form, and the bottom will be a cloudy liquid, usually cloudy white with a little yellow tint to it.

It will also start to smell like stinky cheese. Usually the smell stays mostly in the container, but be aware this process does create some cheesy odor that you may find unpleasant.

We are after the liquid layer, but the cheese layer is full of beneficial bacteria as well. It makes a great addition to your compost pile or soil. I’ve read you could also probably eat it or feed it to your animals, (its basically cheese and beneficial bacteria) but it smells pretty weird so I have yet to try it myself. It usually goes in my compost pile.

After about 5-10 days, the mix should be completely separated into a solid layer and a liquid layer. Use your turkey baster, strainer, or careful pouring to separate the liquid into a different jar or container. This liquid layer is full of the Lactobacillus we are after.



Day 1- Milk and native bacteria culture combined. The purple and blue thingies are “Pickle Pipe” one way valves that allow the jars to vent air out but not in. They are nice tools to have when making this sort of thing, but not required.



Day 2- starting to separate



Day 5- Mostly separated.



Day 7- Separation Complete



Strainer lid- very useful but optional. Available most places that sell canning jars.



Cheese chunk and lacto culture after separating with strainer lid



Cheese!

Step 3: Add sugar to the lactobacillus culture to preserve and stabilize it. Mix your lacto culture with a roughly equal amount of sugar or molasses.

So if you have 1 liter of lacto culture, add about 1 liter of molasses or 1 kilogram (about 2.2lbs) of sugar.

In order to stay alive and happy in their jar, your Lactobacilli need a long term food source. Adding a bunch of sugar or molasses gives them something to snack on and will preserve your Lacto culture for a year or more. The type of sugar doesn’t seem to matter too much, but I prefer organic cane sugar as its not bleached or as heavily processed as other varieties. The type of sugar you use may effect the color of your final product, but I’ve made many batches with several different types of sugar and they all seemed to work fine. The finished liquid is ready to use and stable to store at room temp for at least a year, and probably much longer.



Finished Lacto cultures. Color may vary based on the type of sugar you use.

How to prepare Bitter leaf juice for your birds

Thisis very simple just follow what I will teach and you will get it done at once. Get or collect the leaves from the main plant, you may even buy from the markets.

The extraction process can be done using the old school method by rubbing the clean leaves in between your palms with the help of little water and squeezing out the juice from the leaves. You may also use blender for this process. Now that you are through with the extraction using either of these methods, let talk on how to use the extract.

Add one glass cup full of bitter leaves extract to about five litters of water and allow your birds to drink if for about four to five days and repeat the process in a week interval for two to three weeks. This works for my birds, you may ask why? The components that make up the extract reveal that they are very good to boost the immune system. The components are Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Vitamin B1 and Vitamin B2

Red dropping is a common disease associated with birds raising on the floor, as we the poultry keeper knows that this is a big challenge that we need to overcome. Seen red dropping is not encouraging in the farm at all, but you are at the right area, I mean you are at the right place for this wonderful information. Now that you are with your bitter leaves extract, add a glass cup full of the extract and add it to two litter of water and allow your birds to drink.

First, it will be good for you to maintain one handle on this thread.

Alternating from tasho105 to chickensetal isn't the safest way to advertise your business here.

Tomorrow an entirely different handle may appear and claim to be same with the op but has the intention to defraud unsuspecting clients....


just my 1 Kobo advice....

Noted...
As you can see from my profile,I'm relatively new on Nairaland and I get to understand the rules by day.

Livestock keeping is what i love doing from childhood.
I basically got to Nairaland through research on how best to be a farmer in this 21st century starting from my backyard.

Anyways thanks for the one kobo/one billion advice.
Now I understand better.
