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...

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the additional effects of two ground medicinal herbs oat bran (OB) and dill seed (DS) on serum lipids, carcass characteristics and growth performance in Japanese quails. A total of 240-twenty one day of age male Japanese quails were allocated randomly to 3 treatments with 4 replicates of 20 birds per cage. Birds during the 22-49 days on trial received 3 d...

The effect of experimental long term hypodynamy on the structure of the adrenal glands of the Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) was studied. Two days after hatching the quails were suspended in special shirts below the ceiling of a cage so their feet did not touch the floor. They could consume feed and water ad libitum. Animals of the same age, hatched at the same time, and fed the sa...

Pompe disease is a fatal genetic muscle disorder caused by a deficiency of acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA), a glycogen degrading lysosomal enzyme. GAA-deficient (AMD) Japanese quails exhibit progressive myopathy and cannot lift their wings, fly, or right themselves from the supine position (flip test). Six 4-wk-old acid maltase-deficient quails, with the clinical symptoms listed, were intravenousl...

This experiment was carried out to evaluation usage different levels of additional choline supplement (0, 400 and 800 mg/kg) and its effect on performance and visceral organs weight of Japanese quails in corn and Iranian soybean meal based diet. In this one, it was used of 240 one-day quails. This one was designed based on completely randomized designed in 3 treatments, 4 replicates and in ever...

The origin of bursal lymphoid cells in Japanese quails was studied by means of a quantitative morphological method during a 6 to 12 day incubation period. The findings obtained in this study are summarized as follows. At 6 to 7 days' incubation, no lymphoid cells were observed in the bursal primordium. In 8 day embryonic bursa, the first appearance of lymphoid cells was found in the tunica muco...

the effects of feeding diets containing salbutamol (0, 1, 3, 5 and 7 mg/kg diet) from 21 to 49 days of ageon growth performance and carcass characteristics in 180 male and 180 female japanese quails (coturnixjaponica) were studied using a factorial arrangement based on completely randomized design. gender hadsignificant effect on weight gain (pwere not statistically significant (p>0.05). salbut...

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...

As climate change is expected to worsen in the future, raising livestock animals used meat production with maximum efficiency warm conditions may become a necessity meet food needs. To this end, experiment was carried out determine quality properties of breast from different colored Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix Japonica) grown under conditions. A total 100 were used, 25 each black, white,...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of replacing maize in quail diets with graded levels of rumen filtrate-fermented cassava meal (FCM) on growth and egg production performances. Cassava meal (CM) was mixed with dried manure of layer at 75 g/kg CM, which was mixed with freshly collected rumen filtrate (at 1 L/5 kg CM), and finally fermented in sealed bags for 14 days. It was then s...
