Quality eggs with Koudijs feed solutions

The secret behind producing healthy and tasty eggs lies in the composition of the feed. Koudijs created a feed solution containing more than 38 selected ingredients. 

These ingredients are all essential for ensuring the healthy and optimal performance of laying hens, resulting in the production of the healthiest and protein-rich eggs. 


Egg nutrition

Eggs are a rich source of high-quality protein and contain thirteen essential vitamins and minerals, as well as essential omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants.

As a complete protein source, eggs provide all nine amino acids that the human body cannot produce on its own and must obtain from dietary sources.

Did you know?

Approximately 60% of the protein in eggs is found in the egg white, while the yolk contains the remaining protein along with beneficial fats, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

Together, these components make eggs a valuable addition to your daily nutritional intake.
