The present study investigated the effect of Azomite (AZO) on growth performance, nutrient utilisation, and bone mineralisation broilers fed low protein diet. A total number 180 one-day-old male chicks were randomly distributed to three treatment groups having six replicates 10 birds each. Experimental diets included; positive control (PC) with 21.5% CP (starter) 19.0% (finisher), negative (NC)...

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of stocking density on growing-meat quail performance (experiment I) and the effect of dietary crude protein (CP) levels and stocking density on growth performance, nutrient retention, blood metabolites, and carcass weight of growing-meat quails under high ambient temperature (experiment II). Three hundred and eighty male growing-meat quails...

the effects of a multi enzyme were evaluated on performance and nutrient digestibility in african domesticated ostrich at 14 months ages. there were three treatments as; common diet (1), common diet plus multi enzyme (0.350 gkg -1) (2) and common diet plus multi enzyme (0.700 gkg -1) (3). 18 ostrich were used in this experiment (6 birds per treatment). there was significant effect of enzyme sup...

this study was carried out to investigate the effects of dietary putrescine (put) on broiler’s response fed low crude protein (cp) diets. a total of 192 male day old chicks were fed with four dietary treatments including two levels of put (0 and 0.03%) and two levels of cp (normal and low) with factorial combinations. weekly growth performance, nutrient digestibility and intestinal morphology (...

The effect of concentrate mixtures with crude protein (CP) levels 10%, 13%, 16%, and 19% and diets with roughage to concentrate ratios 80:20, 60:40, 40:60, and 20:80 (w/w) were determined on dry matter (DM) and organic matter (OM) digestibility, and fermentation metabolites using an in vitro fermentation technique. In vitro fermented attributes were measured after 4, 24, and 48 h of incubation ...

This study determined the apparent and standardized ileal amino acids digestibility (AID or SID) for growing pigs fed three protein feedstuffs with different fiber types at two dietary crude protein (CP) levels. Twenty boars (Yorkshire × Landrace) with 35 kg body weight and fitted with a simple T-cannula at the distal ileum were used. The treatments were three protein feedstuffs [soybean meal (...

Breeding leaner pigs during the last decades may have changed pig's empty body (EB) composition, a key trait for elaborating feeding recommendations. This research aimed to provide new experimental data on changes in the chemical composition of the EB of pigs from 20 to 140 kg BW. In addition, the impact of a reduction in the dietary CP associated with lower lysine, methionine+cystine, threonin...

The response of laying Japanese quails to dietary levels of energy and protein on performance, egg quality, hatchability, fertility and their effect on subsequent offspring live body weight was investigated. A total of 432 Japanese quails (13 weeks old) were divided into nine treatments. Each treatment comprised of four replicates of twelve birds (9 females and 3 males). Nine diets including th...
