Treatments were arranged in a 3 × 3 × 3 factorial design consisting of 3 levels of added fiber (0, 2 and 4% oat hulls), added moisture (0, 2 and 4% tap water) and added protein (0, 2 and 4% soybean meal). Fiber, moisture and/or protein were added to a corn/soybean based basal diet that was formulated to Cobb specifications. Feed was manufactured at the West Virginia University pilot feed mill u...

Two experiments were conducted to determine the effect of extrusion of corn on nutrient digestibility, metabolizable energy and performance in poultry under tropical environment. In experiment 1, twenty one male broilers were allotted in an individual metabolic cage and fed mash diets with: 1) basal diet containing 45.7% dextrose; 2) 40% substitution of normal corn for dextrose and 3) 40% subst...

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of form and particle size of feed supplemented with L- threonine on growth performance, carcass characteristic and blood biochemical parameters of broiler chickens. The experimental design was a 2 × 2 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatments evaluating two feed forms (pellet or mash), two feed particle sizes (fine or course), and two inclusion r...

Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus, Linnaeus, 1758) is a dominant commodity in the Indonesian freshwater fishery industry, and its growth relies on feed. Pellet are feed that processed through factory mechanism or human intervention, based cultivators’ needs. Therefore, purpose of this study was to determine effect pelleted with varying protein content survival tilapia niloticus) fry. This conducte...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of feeding mash versus pellet with different thermal process on blood metabolites, carcass characteristics and broiler performance. 192 (one-day) cobb broiler chicks were used in a completely randomized design with 4 experimental groups (diets) and 4 replicates of ten chicks each (totally 16 pens). the experimental treatment groups consisted of m...

Compensatory growth of grower olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) was determined at suboptimal temperature (13.0±1.9°C). Fifteen fish averaging 201.1 g per tank were distributed into 18 of 300 L flow-through tanks. Six treatments were prepared in triplicate: fish were hand-fed with an extruded pellet to apparent satiation once a day for 16 weeks (16 WF); and the other five groups of fish we...

Multiple infections of several bacterial species are often observed under natural farm conditions. The would cause a much more significant loss compared to single infectious agent. Vaccination is an essential strategy prevent diseases in aquaculture, and oral vaccination has been proposed as promising technique since it requires no handling the fish easy perform. This research attempts develop ...

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of ground or steam-flaked corn and zinc-enriched yeast addition grower pellet feed on fattening performance, rumen papillae development, some blood parameters in lambs. For this purpose, thirty-six Kivircik male lambs were selected divided equally into six groups: basal diet containing without different form (control), 80% + 20% (PGC), (PFC), PGC Zn-enri...
