BioActiv is LDI’s multi-strain probiotic powder, marketed for gut microbial balance in chicks and broodhens.
What Is Actually In It
LDI’s page lists nine strains by colony-forming units (CFU) per gram of product: Lactobacillus plantarum at 8.75 x 10^8, Streptococcus sp. at 8.50 x 10^8, Bifidobacterium bifidum at 2.95 x 10^8, Lactobacillus bulgaricus at 2.95 x 10^8, Bacillus subtilis 1575 at 2.88 x 10^8, Lactobacillus acidophilus at 2.60 x 10^8, Bacillus subtilis 1677 at 1.82 x 10^8, Bacillus subtilis 1333 at 1.32 x 10^8, and Saccharomyces sp. at 1.37 x 10^8. Those nine figures are transcribed exactly as LDI publishes them.
What the Label Says It Is For
LDI describes BioActiv as “a microbial feed supplement which improves intestinal microbial balance in gamefowls.” That is the manufacturer’s own indication for the product.
Forms It Comes In
LDI sells BioActiv as a water-soluble powder, dosed differently for chicks during a specific age window and for broodhens across the breeding season.
Withdrawal Period
LDI does not publish a withdrawal period for BioActiv. The absence of a published figure is not the same as a zero-day withdrawal. Confirm timing with a veterinarian or agrivet before slaughter or egg use.
What This Page Does Not Tell You
This page transcribes what LDI publishes about BioActiv. It does not verify the manufacturer’s claim of improved intestinal balance, and it does not tell a reader whether their flock’s digestive symptoms call for a probiotic versus another treatment. Bring your flock’s condition to a veterinarian, an agrivet, or the local agriculture office.
