Influence of Minimum Energy and Protein Levels in the Diet on Growth, Yield, and Meat Quality of Sin Cheng Duck Raised for Meat at 1-12 Weeks of Age

Research evaluating the effect of energy levels and minimum dietary protein on growth, performance, meat quality Sin Cheng ducks reared for at 1-12 weeks age to find out minimal raising ducks. The study was conducted 450 from 1 day old 12 arranged in 3 groups with different diet, corresponding stages (0-3 old)., 4-7 old, 8-12 old) respectively: Control group (DC): 2267 - 2329 2372Kcal, 17 15 14% protein; Experimental one (TN1): 2533 – 2640 2711Kcal, 19 -16% two (TN2): 2001 2019 2033Kcal, 13 12% protein. results week showed that: With TN1 giving highest survival rate, cumulative growth reached 2403.15 g/individual (duck), equivalent DC (2402.02 (duck) higher than TN2 (2303.03 g/individual). percentage carcass, breast, thigh (69.73%, 16.62%, 14.14%, respectively) similar that (70.00%, 16.64% 14.13% much (66.3%, 15.62%, 13.23%, respectively). dry matter duck's breast significantly group. (2533 -16%) are suitable
