Iron requirements of broiler breeder hens.
A study was conducted to investigate Fe requirements of broiler breeders. One-hundred-fifty-six Cobb 500 broiler breeder hens were individually placed in electrostatically painted cages at 22 weeks. The study was composed of an adaptation phase, in which hens were fed corn-soy-wheat bran diets until 35 wks. An Fe deficient mash diet (24.6 ppm Fe) was provided from 35 to 46 wk in order to induce...
متن کاملCharacterization of energetic efficiency in adult broiler breeder hens.
This trial characterized residual feed intake (RFI) and residual maintenance requirement (RME(m)) as measures of energetic efficiency in broiler breeder hens. The RFI was defined as the difference between observed and expected ME intake and RME(m) as the difference between observed and expected maintenance requirements. A total of 600 Ross 708 1-d-old pullets were placed in floor pens. At 16 wk...
متن کاملA twice-a-day feeding regimen optimizes performance in broiler breeder hens.
To evaluate the effects of different methods of feed allocation on performance, plasma hormone concentration, and ovarian morphology, an experiment was conducted using 32 Cobb 500 broiler breeder hens. The experiment was started at 27 wk and lasted to 39 wk of age. Feeding regimens included: i) hens with an ad libitum feeding program, ii) hens that received their restricted feed once a day, iii...
متن کاملPrevalence of Clostridium perfringens type A isolates in commercial broiler chickens and parent broiler breeder hens in Egypt.
The aim of this study was to determine the presence of genes coding for alpha (cpalpha), beta (cpbeta), epsilon (epsilontx), iota (iotaA), enterotoxin (cpepsilon) and beta2 (cpbeta2) toxins in Clostridium perfringens isolates from broiler chickens and parent broiler breeder hens, using multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay. The prevalence of C. perfringens in the intestinal segments a...
متن کاملEffects of fenfluramine on body weight, feed intake, and reproductive activities of broiler breeder hens.
Inherited overfeeding and fattiness reduce laying performance in broiler breeder pullets. Although feed restriction is used to compensate for overeating and weight gain, this management practice leads to increases in BW variation, labor cost, and bird stress. Dietary supplementation of anorectic agents, such as fenfluramine, may be an alternative. Anak female prebreeder hens (19 wk of age; n = ...
