Calendula officinalis (pot marigold) is more than a beautiful flower. It’s packed with powerful plant compounds that work inside your chickens to support better health, brighter yolks, and a cleaner coop environment.
Calendula isn’t just another pretty flower, it’s a powerhouse packed with nutrients your flock actually benefits from. Its natural pigments, like lutein and beta-carotene, give your hens’ eggs that rich golden color customers love.
The flavonoids and saponins inside Calendula help strengthen their immune system and keep harmful bacteria under control, while its phenolic compounds act like tiny shields that protect cells from stress and sickness.
At Buff Clucks Herb Supplement, we carefully chose Calendula because science—and our hens—proved it works. It’s nature and research working together to keep your flock thriving from the inside out.

Tired of pale eggs? Calendula is packed with natural pigments that bring out the golden-orange yolk color, without adding synthetic dyes or chemicals.
Hens fed just 3% Calendula produced eggs with deep, vibrant yolks, ranked premium on the DSM color scale used by egg producers worldwide.
Calendula-fed hens laid eggs rich in natural pigments like lutein and beta-carotene. With 100% natural results, with zero synthetic additives.
In one study, even when corn (which adds natural color) was replaced with pale bread waste, adding just 0.5% Calendula restored yolk color back to normal.
When we first discovered Calendula, we didn’t choose it because it looked pretty, we chose it because our hens showed us it worked. After just a few weeks of adding it to their feed, their eggs turned a deeper, golden orange, like sunshine in a shell. That caught our attention… then the research confirmed it.
Calendula’s natural pigments like lutein and beta-carotene were doing what synthetic colorants try to mimic. Only better, cleaner, and completely natural.
That’s why Buff Clucks Herb Supplement proudly includes Calendula in every blend because we’ve seen it bring dull eggs back to life, and we know your flock will show the same glow.

Calendula boosts your birds’ internal antioxidant levels fighting stress, supporting tissues, and keeping yolks stable and fresh.
Eggs stayed fresh longer with lower spoilage markers.
Findings: TBARS levels dropped from 1.57 to 0.83
"Calendula-fed birds laid eggs with significantly reduced oxidative stress. Hens lay fresher, longer-lasting eggs that hold their quality better in the nest, fridge, or egg basket"
Quail fed Calendula extract showed double the levels of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), one of the body’s strongest natural antioxidants.
Findings: 1177.7 vs. 570.3 U/L enzyme activity
"Quail fed Calendula had double the levels of glutathione peroxidase, a key protector against cellular stress.This means their bodies were better at fighting off internal stress and cell damage."
If feed was downgraded, Calendula kept eggs fresh & nutrient-dense.
Findings: Protects Egg Quality, Even on Poorer Feed
"Even when feed was downgraded, Calendula helped preserve egg freshness and nutrient content by reducing cell stress and oxidation. Your flock gets better health outcomes, even if your feed budget is tight."
When we first learned about Calendula’s antioxidant strength, we understood why it’s often called “nature’s shield.” Inside every bright orange petal are compounds that help your hens handle stress and keep their eggs fresh longer.
Studies showed that flocks fed Calendula had twice the antioxidant protection inside their bodies helping them stay strong, even through heat, molting, or feed changes.
That’s why we added Calendula to Buff Clucks Herb Supplement, it’s a simple, natural way to help your chickens lay fresher eggs, recover faster, and feel their best every day.

Calendula helps you get more out of every bag of feed. Studies show it supports better growth, more eggs, and lower feed costs, even when using budget or recycled feeds.
Hens fed Calendula needed 3% less feed per egg laid. Their feed consumption dropped from 164.2g to 159.8g per egg, saving feed while keeping productivity the same.
At just 800 mg/kg of Calendula extract, quails laid significantly more eggs compared to birds without it, while consuming less feed.
This powerful flower helps hens make the most out of every meal, turning nutrients into steady egg production without extra cost or waste.
Studies show that chickens fed with Calendula needed less feed to lay the same number of eggs, while quails produced even more eggs with fewer feed inputs. It’s proof that nature can outperform synthetic enhancers when used right.
At Buff Clucks, we know every scoop of feed counts and that’s why we added Calendula officinalis to our Buff Clucks Herb Supplement. Calendula doesn’t just help your flock thrive, it helps you raise them smarter, more naturally, and more efficiently.
