چکیده

The benefits of feeding avilamycin (Surmax/Maxus, Elanco Animal Health) to broiler chickens were demonstrated in a floor pen study (two trials) in which avilamycin was fed at 10 ppm in a 45-day growout. Final live weight of broilers fed avilamycin was significantly (P < or = .01) heavier (90 g) than that of control broilers fed for an equal number of days. Feed conversion was numerically but not significantly improved by avilamycin. Dressing percentage (hot eviscerated carcass weight/live weight) of broilers fed avilamycin was significantly improved (P < or = .01) relative to that of control broilers fed for an equal number of days.
