Effect of day to day variation of dietary energy on residual feed intake of laying hens.

An experiment was conducted that examined the effect of day-to-day variability of dietary energy on feed intake behavior. Three levels of average daily dietary ME composition (2,580, 2,814, and 3,009 kcal/kg) and three levels of day-to-day variability of ME (low, medium, and high) were assigned to nine groups of DeKalb-XL laying hens in a 3x3 factorial design. Each of the nine treatments contai...

Effects of Isoflavones in Feed on Plasma Estradiol Concentration and Productive Performances in Laying Hens

Isoflavones are phytoestrogens which have estrogen-like activity in animals and humans with structure similar to 17-β-estradiol and capable of binding to estrogen receptors (ERs).This experiment was conducted to demonstrate the effect of isoflavones on estradiol concentration in blood and its influence on the productive performances in ISA Brown laying hens fed with supplemented feed with large...

Residual Feed Intake and Feed Efficiency: Differences and Implications

In the beef production system, 70-75% of the total dietary energy is used for maintenance (Ferrell and Jenkins 1984; NRC 1996; Montaldo-Bermudez et al. 1990). Thus, while only 5% of the total life cycle dietary energy consumption is used for protein deposition in beef cattle, swine and poultry are more efficient at 14 and 22%, respectively. The relatively large size, slow maturity and slow repr...

Feed Conversion and Feeding Behaviour in Laying Hens

T_e high proportion of feed costs in total operating expenses (1,2,6) indicates that the utilization of feed by the birds is closely related to the profitability of >oultry operations. The relationship between feed conversion (expressed as a ratio between weight units of feed consumed per weight unit of product) and profitability (defined as an increment .of total income over total costs) is es...

Residual feed intake and juvenile IGF-I

The efficiency of feed use is an important factor influencing costs of production. However, feed intake (FI) is generally difficult and costly to measure. In addition, feed intake per se is relatively meaningless unless taken in the context of prevailing environmental and physiological processes. For example, FI and its utilisation by animals is altered by climate, activity levels, disease and ...
