An important aspect of winter care for chickens is sufficient vitamins, especially vitamin A, which is known for its anti-infective properties. Vitamin A supports the immune system, mucous membrane health , and protects the body from diseases by acting as an antioxidant. Vitamins D and E also play a key role: vitamin D promotes the absorption of calcium, which is necessary for the formation of strong eggshells and healthy bones, and vitamin E protects cells from damage and maintains the normal functioning of the immune and reproductive systems.

Chickens need all vitamins in small amounts to ensure proper growth and health. They are divided into fat-soluble and water-soluble. Fat-soluble vitamins can accumulate in the body, so excess can be dangerous. Important fat-soluble vitamins include A, D, E and K, each of which plays an essential role. While water-soluble vitamins, such as B vitamins and C, need to be replenished regularly, as they are not stored in the body.

Vitamin support in winter helps chickens maintain health and vitality in cold and stressful conditions, which in turn contributes to the quality of their productivity.
