the aim of this study was to investigate the effects seaweeds gracilariopsis persica in diets on performance and tsh, t3 and t4 hormones in serum of laying quail. a total of 112 laying quails were randomly allocated into four dietary treatments (diets containing 0, 1, 3 and 5% seaweed) with 4 replicates of 7 birds each. the birds were fed on experimental diets for 12 weeks. eggs were collected ...

this study was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary soy isoflavones (isfs) on growth performance, blood parameters and tibia ca and p content of broiler chickens. a total of 240 as-hatched day-old ross 308 chicks were used in a completely randomize design with four treatments (0 (control), 25, 50 and 100 mg/kg of isf), three replicates and 20 birds per each replicate for a period of 4...

In this experiment 240 Hy-Line (W-36) laying hens from 65 to 75 weeks distributed in 5 treatments and 4 replicates (12 birds per replicate) in a completely randomized design were used. The amounts of watermelon skin meal (WSM) used to set the treatments were 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2% in 1 to 5 experimental groups. The results showed that using WSM up to 2% significantly improved the performance and...

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of different levels of canola oil and diet mixing time length on performance, carcass traits and blood lipids in broilers. In this experiment 288 Ross-308 broilers were used from 11 up to 42 days as factorial arrangement (3×2) included three levels of canola oil (0, 3 and 6%) and two mixing time length (10 and 15 minute) in 6 treatments, ...

Generally, only a fraction of the mineral ingested by an animal is effectively absorbed, while most are bound to other components such as fibre and then excreted. In this study, faecal mineral composition differentials were used as indicators of mineral uptake by pullets supplemented varying levels of plantain ash in their daily rations for nine weeks. Plantain stalk and root base samples were ...

in order to determine the optimal levels of energy and protein in grower diet of japanese quail, 360 dayold japanese quails were used in a 3×3 factorial arrangement of dietary treatments that comprised threelevels of metabolisable energy (2750, 2850, and 2950 kcal/kg) and three levels of crude protein (24, 26and 28 percent) with four replicates per treatment in a completely randomized design. f...

the objective of this study was to determine the effect of different levels of chicory root and stem powder (crsp) and butyric acid (ba) combination on the performance, carcass traits, relative weight of internal organs and some blood parameters in broiler chickens. two hundred and forty one-day-old broilers (ross 308) were used in a completely randomized design with four treatments with six re...
