postheadericon What To Feed Chickens To Lower Cholesterol?

I read on a previous posting that it is what you feed the chickens that increases or lowers the cholesterol content. Unfortunately there was no mention on what you should feed them. I have noticed that some chicken feed contains blood and bone, and that would obviously play a role. Is there anything else I should be aware of? Please note I do not live in the USA so please do not give brand names.

    To lower cholesterol, you would want to lower the fat content of what you are feeding since cholesterol is found in the fat. If you are referring to meat birds and you mean that you need to lower the cholesterol in your diet, you can do that by not eating the fat and skin of the chicken.

    Well I’m an animal doctor, and yes I do see chickens from time to time, and to lower a chicken’s cholesterol, just feed them grass. I’m not kidding. Try it. It actually works.

    Your chickens need, Alot of green living plants,to bring down the cholesterol.
