What is the difference between chicken meal and chicken by- product meal?
Chicken meal is a high quality protein source that contains muscle meat as well as a small percentage of bone. The bone fraction contains rich sources of calcium and phosphorus. By law it may not contain heads, feet or intestines. Chicken by-product meal contains a variety of chicken “parts” including heads, feet and intestines. The only part of the chicken which cannot be included in chicken by-product meal is feathers.
