We determined the effects of dietary supplementation of different doses of Miswak (Salvadorapersica) steam and leaf powder on the performance, blood parameters, cecal flora, and carcass traits of broilers. Four hundred and eight one-day old Ross 308 broiler chicks were provided one of the following experimental diets over 42 days:  a basal diet without any additives, or a basal diet supplemente...

Two studies were conducted to evaluate the nutritional effects of supplementary ascorbic acid (AA) at levels 0, 100, 200, and 300 mg/kg in diets growing pullets reared different seasons (dry season rainy season).240 eight weeks-old Harco pullet chicks used each trial, they randomly assigned four dietary treatments three replications twenty per replicate. Each trial lasted 12 weeks (84 days) dur...

The effect of cinnamon and turmeric powders on performance, and blood parameters of broiler chickens under heat stress were investigated. 200 one-day-old male chicks (Ross 308) were used in a completely randomized design with four treatments and five replicates with 10 birds in each replicate. All birds were treated with heat stress (32οC) and were either fed no any supplement (control), or 0.5...

One-day-old cobb-400 broiler chicks (240 nos.) were randomly assigned into four dietary treatments each with three replicates of 20 chicks. Four experimental diets were formulated as control diet (T1) without ginger or garlic, while, birds in group T2, T3 and T4 were fed with diets containing 1 % garlic, 1 % ginger and a combination of 1% of garlic and ginger, respectively. Ginger supplementati...

Two experiments were conducted to study the effect of adding soy-lecithin or xylanase low-energy diet on broilers growth performance, nutrient digestibility, intestinal lipase enzyme activity and economical efficiency. A total number 256 unsexed Cobb500 broiler chicks, a day old, classified into two equal experiments, 128 chicks each (4 treatments × 4 replicates 8chicks). In experiment, divided...
