Prosper EO is a powerful antioxidant we add to all our Sugar Feather Farm feeds. It is a broad range immunity booster that has prebiotic fibers and blends of micro infused oils that helps support digestive health, overall performance, growth, and development. It boosts the fowl’s immunity so it can fight common diseases, issues, and weather changes. Case studies show the data and have helped with Salmonella, E-Coli, and Coccidiosis in a safe and natural way.
We strongly believe in using Oregano Oil in both feed and in the water for optimum results.

We’ve fed and refined this formulation through 7+ years of raising and hatching quail, guinea fowl, and turkeys on our farm, dialing it in for consistency and results. It’s the same starter feed used in our own breeding and hatching programs at Sugar Feather Farm.
