What is zinc:
The short name for zinc oxide is zinc. The chemical symbol for zinc oxide is ZnO. Zinc plays an important role in alleviating anemia in animals. Zinc helps the body meet its mineral needs. Zinc is found in nature in the form of white powder.

Zinc is absorbed by the body and increases the efficiency of other organs of the body. Domestic animals, including cows, goats, buffaloes, pigs and horses, need very little zinc per day for their physical growth. On the other hand, the role of zinc in full nutrient absorption is extensive. Lack of zinc in pigeons, chickens, poultry, boilers and other birds impairs physical growth. Production decreases. So the need for zinc in the body of animals is immense.
How animals and birds absorb zinc:
Green and raw grass is rich in zinc. Cows, goats, buffaloes, pigs take zinc through raw grass. Farms and farm animals have to be supplied with zinc artificially. Can be fed by mixing zinc with water or animal feed. It is better to mix zinc in water and feed it to chickens, boilers and layers.
What kind of animals and birds should be fed zinc:
Animals and birds that are reared in a closed manner, animals that are reared on farms or farms must be supplied with zinc. In addition, animals suffering from diarrhea should be given regular zinc intake. Where there is a shortage of raw grass, it is better to feed zinc to animals and birds.
