The present study evaluated the carcass and meat quality traits of three groups Japanese quails. These {i.e. selected for 4-week body-weight group (WBS), egg number (EBS), random-bred control (RBC)}, were consecutive generations from a base population 1125 In total, 2700 four-week-old quails lines (225 birds per generation) slaughtered in total four (G0 to G3). effects selection on generations....

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of different levels of sesame meal (SM) on performance and carcass characteristics of Japanese quail. One hundred sixty day-old Japanese quail chick were equally distributed into 16 cage pens and reared form 10 to 42 days of age. The treatments consisted of SM0, SM50, SM100 and SM150. The diet for SM0 treatment had no SM (control), while those ...

In order to investigate the effect of different levels lavender essential oil and bacitracin methylene disalicylate antibiotics on performance, carcass traits, some blood parameters, small intestinal tissue morphology microbial population in Japanese quails, a study was performed 400 pieces quail per day. The treatments included group consuming basic diet without any additives as (control) anti...

the present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of feeding of different levels of metabolizable energy and of different crude protein levels on the performance and blood factors in japanese quails in their 5 to 41d old. the experiment was conducted as a 3×5 factorial arrangement, in a completely randomized design of four replicates with 40 quails per replicate. the fifteen dietary treatm...

Colibacillosis caused by avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is an economic threat to the poultry industry throughout the world. Some of the virulence genes may enhance the ability of E. coli isolates to grow in the tissues of broilers. The APEC strains are assigned to a few distinct phylogenetic groups. The purpose of the present study was to detect the virulence genes a...

Since cinnamon has vitamins and minerals in addition to antioxidants compounds in its chemical composition studies have shown the potential of cinnamon supplementation on some important characteristics in the performance of birds. Thus, this study was conducted under the hypothesis that the inclusion of cinnamon in the laying quail diet could influence the performance of the birds through the e...

In this study, the effects of two different levels sweet almond supplementation (2,500 and 5,000 mg/kg) to Japanese quails’ diets (Coturnix coturnix Japonica) on performance, carcass group, blood values meat quality were examined. For purpose, 72 one-day-old quails randomly distributed under control experimental groups for 35 days experiment, their body weight feed consumption evaluated. At end...

Abstract Two experiments were conducted in order to evaluate the effect of dietary inclusion guava extract on laying performance and lipid stability egg Japanese quails. For first experiment, 384 quails with 42 days old distributed a completely randomized design four treatments (0.0; 3.0; 6.0; 9.0 g.kg-1 extract), 6 replicates, 16 birds/replicate. The experimental period lasted 84 days, divided...
