An experiment was conducted to estimate optimal dietary arginine requirement in White Pekin ducks from 1 to 21 d of age. Six hundred thirty 1-d-old male White Pekin ducks were randomly allotted to 10 dietary treatments with 7 replicate pens of 9 birds per pen. Birds in each group were fed corn-corn gluten meals diet containing 0.71, 0.84, 0.95, 1.03, 1.17, 1.27, 1.39, 1.47, 1.62, and 1.72% argi...

two experiments were conducted to investigate the feeding value of waste fig along with its effect on broilers, performance. in the first experiment, the amen content of fig was determined through total collection method using 10 adult leghorn cockerels. in the second experiment, 240 day-old male ross broiler chicks were randomly alloted to 6 experimental groups of 4 replicates of 10 chicks eac...

an experiment was conducted to determine the effect of different levels of potato replacing maizeseed on performance characteristicsand immunes system of broiler chicken in a completely randomized design. a total of 220 broiler chicks were randomly assigned to 5 treatment groups, with 4 replicates of 11 birds each. the chicks in the first group were fed basal diet (control), 2nd and 3rd groups ...

the aim of this experiment was evaluating effect of fish oil versus palm oil on mammary gland health and milk production in holstein cows. ten multiparous holstein cows were used from six week before up to 63 days after parturition. feed intake and milk production were recorded daily, milk composition, body weight and body condition score were measured weekly and blood metabolites were determin...

this study was carried out to determine nutritive value and the effect of amaranthus grain on performance and carcass characteristics of broiler chicks. chemical composition of amaranthus grain including dry matter, crude protein, crude fiber, crude ash, and gross energy were 91.04, 17.50, 8.40, 2.70, 5.41, percent and 4515 kcal/kg respectively. metabolizable energy content of amaranthus grain ...

Three groups of 11 New Zealand White (NZW) rabbit does, each were reared from 12 weeks of age on iso-energetic diets containing 16, 14 or 12% crude protein (CP) were used to study influences on productive performance, digestibility, some carcass traits, haematological, biochemical and hormonal parameters of rabbit does. The results showed rabbits fed on 16% protein diet had heavier body weights...
