Campylobacter species occurrence within internal organs and tissues of commercial caged Leghorn laying hens.
Campylobacter spp. are frequently present in the intestinal tract and internal tissues of broiler breeder and broiler chickens. Campylobacter spp. ecology in commercial Leghorn laying hens has not been extensively studied. The objectives of the current study were to determine 1) Campylobacter spp. presence in the reproductive tract, lymphoid organs, liver-gallbladder, and ceca of commercial Leg...
متن کاملEffect of Different Levels of Dietary Crude Protein, Lysine and Methionine on Performance of White Leghorn Laying Hens
Objective: An experiment was conducted to study the effect of feeding of different levels of dietary crude protein (17.5, 16.5 and 15.5%) with varying levels of lysine (0.77, 0.73 and 0.68%) and methionine (0.36, 0.34 and 0.32%) on performance of white leghorn layers from 34-53 weeks of age. Methodology: Each diet was fed ad libitum to 12 replicates consisting of 88 birds in each replicate. Egg...
متن کاملAmmonia Emission, Manure Nutrients and Egg Production of Laying Hens Fed Distiller Dried Grain Diets
A USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, Conservation Innovation Grant project coordinated by the United Egg Producers (UEP) conducted concurrent demonstrations in Iowa and Pennsylvania (PA) at commercial laying hen facilities. The goal was to document manure nutrient and gas emission improvements through the use of dried distiller’s grain with solubles (DDGS) diets and/or other dietary m...
متن کاملYolk and albumen corticosterone concentrations in eggs laid by white versus brown caged laying hens.
Maternal stress in birds can have permanent transgenerational effects through the transmission of stress hormones to offspring via the egg yolk. Previous studies have shown that White Leghorn hens show a heightened response to stress compared with Hy-Line Brown hens, producing significantly more corticosterone and displaying longer bouts of tonic immobility after handling, whereas baseline leve...
متن کاملLaying performance and eggshell quality in laying hens fed diets supplemented with prebiotics and organic acids
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of organic acids and the prebiotic fructans on egg production and eggshell quality when added to the layer diet with different levels of calcium and phosphorus. The experiment was carried out on 168 Bovans Brown hens, allocated to 14 groups of 12 replications. Each hen (replication) was kept in an individual cage 40 cm × 40 cm in size. A 2 × 7 fac...
