Feed Restriction in Broiler Chickens Production
The feed restriction program is on of the main techniques in growth curve manipulation for increasing production efficiency in broiler chicken. Quantities and qualitative feed restriction are procedures that can be used to manipulate the feeding strategies of poultry in order to decrease growth and metabolic rate to some extent and so alleviate the incidence of some metabolic diseases such as a...
متن کاملEffects of Feed Restriction on Production Performance and Carcass Characteristics of Koekoek Chickens in Ethiopia
This study was conducted to examine the effects of feed restriction on production performance as well as traits relating to egg and carcass yield in Potchefstroom Koekoek dual purpose chicken bred under Ethiopian conditions. A total of 240 one-day-old dual purpose Koekoek chicks were randomly distributed into 12 experimental pens, representing 4 feeding treatments to evaluate the performance of...
متن کاملVariation in feed intake of broiler chickens
With many broiler diets, particularly wheat–based diets, rate of passage of digesta limits intake and growth. In many trials, the relationship between feed intake and apparent metabolizable energy (AME) was negative or insignificant. In some trials, the limitation to voluntary intake was so severe that negative relationships existed between it and FCR. This is a consequence of the diversion of ...
متن کاملResponse of Broiler Chickens to Quantitative Feed Restriction with or without Ascorbic Acid Supplementation
Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) supplementation has been documented as a useful tool to improve the performance of laying birds reared under harsh environmental conditions. However, there is limited information on the use of ascorbic acid as a means of ameliorating the stressful conditions imposed by feed restriction. To this effect a 3 × 2 factorial experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect ...
متن کاملEffects of Feed Restriction on Metabolic Disorders in Broiler Chickens: a Review
Continuous genetic selection and improvement in nutrition have led to a very fast growth rate in modern strains of broiler chickens. Metabolic disorders such as ascits, sudden death syndrome and leg problems are related to a rapid early growth rate in poultry, especially in broilers, and their incidence can be decreased by slowing early growth. The use of management tools to reduce metabolic di...
