Are theses probiotics good?

[ChickyCh00k]

NO. The Sacchromyces may have PREbiotic effects. The Tricoderma is a source of a xylanase enzyme, not probiotic. The Pichia is a source of the Phytase enzyme to improve Phosphorus digestibility. There is not a source of true probiotics in that feed ingredient list.

The quick bit of research I did on those ingredients gave other info. But, like I said, I'm no expert.

There are various strains of those approved bacteria that impart different effects in feed. The Bacteria listed on the tag ingredient list do not have the Probiotic effects the OP desires. The Bacteria listed were fermented (raised) to produce the desired enzyme effects. The bacteria are not viable, so cannot impact Probiotic activity in the gut. The yeast listed is an extract, not the live yeast needed for Probiotic effects, it may offer Prebiotic effect to beneficial bacteria in the MIcroBiome of the gut.

Based on your screen name, I'm sure you're more in the know than my quick research was in attempting to find info on the ingredients. Hopefully the OP can find a suitable feed.

Glad you chimed in!

That does say "acidified water" so not necessarily just vinegar. People use rain water in barrels to water their chickens so if it were acidic rain, that would be inhibiting calcium also.
