EFFECT OF STOCKING DENSITY AND PROBIOTIC SUPPLEMENTATION ON BROILER PERFORMANCE

Effects of Probiotic Supplementation on Broiler Performance

A study on the effect of probiotic supplementation on broiler peiftmnance was carried out with 600 one day-old Avian broiler chicks. The duration of study was 35 da)lS and a commercially prepared lactobacillus culture was given to the treated birds via drinking water thmughout the 35 days. The results showed that the live weight of the I,·ealed bird was significantly (P<0.05) improved al 21, 28...

Stocking Density – Factor of Production Performance, Quality and Broiler Welfare

Significance of stocking density in broiler production i.e. production performance, vitality and health condition of chickens, was established at the beginning of development of industrial poultry production. However, considering intensive development of selection work and creation of more productive genotypes which, at the same time, were more demanding in regard to rearing conditions, the cur...

The Effect of Dietary Supplementation of Prebiotic and Probiotic on Performance, Humoral Immunity Responses and Egg Hatchability in Broiler Breeders

In this experiment, the influence of prebiotic and probiotic supplementation in the broiler breeder diets on body weight, mortality, feed intake, egg production, hatchability and humoral immunity response was investigated. A total number of 13140 female and 1260 male breeders (Cobb 500) with 26 wks of age were allocated to three treatments with six replicates (800 birds each replicate). Breeder...

Effect of Probiotic and Population Density on the Growth Performance and Carcass Characteristics in Broiler Chickens

In order to assess the effect of a probiotic and population density on the growth performance and the carcass characteristics in broiler chickens, an experiment was conducted involving 208 1-day-old Peterson brand chicks. They were fed a corn and soy paste diet with 23 and 20 percent crude protein at the first and last stage respectively and 3.2 Mcal ME/kg. A completely randomized design with a...
