The aim of this study was to determine the effect in ovo DL-methionine injection into fertile broiler eggs on hatchability and relative chick weight. In trial, 132 were obtained from a breeder flock (34-wk-old Ross 308 parent stock). Fertile randomly assigned two experimental groups. Experimental groups 1) Control 2) injected group with three replicates. Injections carried out at 16th day incubation. At end study, 90.29%, 84.74% control respectively. Relative weights 70.04% 72.70% it...

3 Abstract: The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary threonine amino acid supplementation on growth performance and carcass characteristics Japanese quails. Day old, two hundred seventy quail chicks were divided into six treatment groups comprising 45 birds each, which consisted subgroups containing 15 for each replicate. Experimental diets prepared contained 0.81, 0.86, 0.91, 0.96, 1.01 1.06 % acid, respective 1-6, fresh matter basis. Birds fed these experimental...

Intensive production practices, faulty maintenance and feeding, unsuitable keeping conditions, antinutritional factors in feeds similar abnormalities lead to irregularities both hormone enzyme systems poultry. Especially, due disorders endocrine system, a specific hormone, melatonin, can not be produced or underproduced, thus its metabolic physiological functions are negatively affected the organisms. Melatonin (ML) is one of important hormones that prevent poultry but does attract attention...

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects insoluble granite-grit on growth performance and gut health status broiler chicks. One hundred sixty 14-day-old chicks were allocated experimental groups control grit feeding. Each group included 80 birds divided by four replicates, each consisting 20 birds, 10 males females. Feed intake, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio, carcass weight, dressing percentage, length, abdominal fat pad, liver, heart, gizzard weights determined....

SUMMARYCadmium is a heavy metal and non-essential in animal nutrition. In practice, cadmium toxicity quite rare farm animals because the level commercial diets very low. However, cadmium-contaminated feedstuffs diet may cause toxicity. When it absorbed from digestive system, accumulates body tissues, primarily kidneys liver, causes metabolic physiological inconveniences body. This leads to economic losses due resulting decrease feed intake egg production. It can lead higher mortality...

ABSTRACT: Effects of dietary Agaricus bisporus mixture or stalk cap on growth performance, carcass components and some meat quality parameters, mesophilic aerobic bacterial counts, intestinal histomorphology in broiler chickens were investigated. Two hundred forty one-day-old male Ross 308 divided into 4 experimental groups with replicates, each including 15 birds. Chickens fed basal diet (C), mushroom (MM, 10 g stalk+10 cap/kg diet), (MS, 20 g/kg diet) (MC, diet). Feed conversion ratio...

This study was carried out to determine the effects of free choice feeding starter feed and whole cereals on growth turkey poults.Two hundred-seventy poults (7-d old) were divided into 3 treatment groups each with replications containing 15 males females.Control (C) fed only (280 g CP 11.7 MJ ME/kg).Treatments for choice-fed offered a wheat (120 12.3 ME/kg) selecting (WS) or maize (83 13.9 (MS) group in separate feeders.Final live weight (2,280.7 C vs. 2,374.3and 2,324.6 WS MS), daily gain...

Abstract Şahin, A. 2009. Effects of dietary Tribulus terrestris L. powder on growth performance, body components and digestive system broiler chicks. J. Appl. Anim. Res., 35: 193–195. To test whether terretris (TT) vegatative can be used as alternative to antibiotics in the diet chicks, 240 mixed sex day old chicks were divided equally into four treatment groups fed basal supplemented with 0.06% alfamune 0.025% flavomycine (control) or 4, 8, 12 g TT per kg. At all levels treated birds ate...

This study was carried out to determine the effects of in ovo pollen extract injection on growth parameters, ileal histomorphology, and caecal microflora fasted broiler chicks. In this experiment, 2×2 factorial experimental design used. One d old, 120 healthy chicks were allocated 4 treatment groups 6 replicates (5 mixed sex each replicates). Treatment were: A) Pollen 24 h fasting (P24); B) 48 (P48), C) Control, no (C24) D) (C48). The experiment lasted 21 days. Live weight, feed consumption,...

Sixty, two-month old male Awassi lambs were used in this study to investigate the effects of feed refreshing (FR) frequencies on their growth and carcass characteristics over a period 65 days. Treatments were: Feed at 2 h (FR2), 4 (FR4), 8 (FR8), 12 (FR12) 24 (FR24) intervals. The fed individually. At onset each offered fresh ad libitum.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects dietary addition male and female Ferula eleaochytris powder (FEP) on growth performance body components broilers (Ross-308). Treatment groups were allocated 5 in which 0 (control), g 10 FEP, FEP doses per kg commercial broiler diet. In total, 80 chicks (1-d old) 16 animals each group used study. Body weight gain feed intake monitored weekly for 6 weeks. Forty two days old slaughtered determine possible changes components. results...

Sixty 2-month-old, male Awassi lambs were used in this study to investigate the effects of feed refreshing frequencies on behavioural responses lambs. Treatments consisted at intervals 2 h (FR2), 4 (FR4), 8 (FR8), 12 (FR12), and 24 (FR24). Each lamb within each group kept individually was considered a replicate. All offered fresh ad libitum period for 56 days. Behavioural determined by monitoring animals days week 30 min 10:00, 12:00, 14:00, 16:00, 18:00, 20:00, 22:00, 24:00, 02:00, 04:00,...
