subulura brumpti infection was observed in japanese quails and caused heavy production loss up to 10%. gross lesions were confined to caecum of the affected birds. pathological changes suggestive of acute cecal hemorrhagic enteritis were recorded. closer observation of the cecal loop revealed wavy movement with thousands of tiny worms. based on morphometry, the worms were identified as s. brump...

Abstract Background In spite of efforts to control avian influenza (AI) and Newcastle disease (ND) over decades, circulation the viral causative agents among domestic feral birds is considered implicated factors for intermittent outbreaks AI ND domesticated as well commercial poultry flocks in Nigeria. this study, sera from (Japanese quails) peri-domestic including laughing dove village weavers...

The potential of the yeast component, mannanoligosaccharide (MOS) to ameliorate the effects of aflatoxicosis was examined in growing Japanese quail. The product was incorporated in the diet at 1 g/kg and was evaluated for its ability to reduce the deleterious effects of 2 mg total aflatoxin (AF; 82.30% AFB1, 2.06% AFB2, 7.68% AFG1 and 7.96% AFG2)/kg diet on Japanese quail chicks from 10 to 45 d...

Abstract This 10-week study aims to examine the performance and egg quality of Japanese quail given a fermented dragon fruit peel (Hylocereus sp) extract in their drinking water. The research methodology employed was completely randomized design (CRD) consisting 5 treatments, each treatment with 4 replications replication comprised 10 quails, total 200 quails 6-weeks-old. R0 = water without ext...

Background: The growth of birds is a function both genetics and environment involving change leading into improvement in weight, shape, size, volume, etc. Study important non-genetic factors view formulating future selection breeding strategies different poultry species. Methods: present study was done on 1246 numbers Japanese Quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) two strains i.e., black white di...

This experiment was undertaken to assess the influence of thyme (Thymus vulgaris) and turmeric (Curcuma longa) essential oils on hematobiochemical parameters Japanese quails. One hundred eighty, 6-day old quail chicks were subjected five weeks trial. Quail distributed at random into dietary treatment groups each with three replicates 12 quails per treatment. Quails T0 group fed diet without (Ba...

The number of wild quail has dramatically reduced in China and reached a state of endangerment with the deterioration of the environment in recent years. In this study, we examined the ecological behaviors of quails in the cage to determine the differentiation level between wild Japanese quail and domestic quail, to detect the relationship between quail behavior and evolutionary differentiation...

The study was conducted to determine the effect of varying protein levels and preservation method on external egg qualities of Japanese quails. A total of 180 birds were randomly allotted into three dietary treatments in a completely randomized design (CRD) replicated six times. A factorial arrangement of 3 × 4 × 4 which involves 3 protein levels (15, 20 and 25% crude protein), 4 storage method...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of dietary vitamin E on reproductive and productive parameters in Japanese quails. A total number of 240 female and 80 male Japanese quail were divided into five treatments with four replications in a completely randomized design. Experimental diets were zero control, 30, 60, 120 and 240 mg kg-1 of vitamin E. Fertility and total hatch...
