The present study was performed to investigate the effect of partially replacing of corn by broken rice (BR) and sugar beet pulp (SBP) in the diet on growth performance and carcass traits of growing Japanese quails. A total number of 324 unsexed one week old Japanese quail chicks fed on diets replacing 0, 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15% of corn by BR and SBP mixture (1:1) to study their effect on Japanese ...

Toxic effects of Aflatoxin B1 on growth performance and humoral immune response against Newcastle disease Virus (NDV) vaccine were determined in Japanese quails. Quail chicks (n=300) were divided into five groups and each group was further sub-divided into two subgroups. One subgroup of each group was vaccinated with NDV vaccine to study the antibody response. Experimental diets were prepared b...

This study was undertaken to assess the production systems, prospects and challenges of quail farming in three (3) ecological zones (Rainforest, Transitional Guinea Savannah) Ghana. Sixty (60) farmers were purposefully sampled for using snowball sampling technique. Data gathered through interviews with aid structured questionnaire analysed SPSS 22.0. The results showed that more males (86.7%) t...

The activity of aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase and lactate dehydrogenase, total protein, albumin and cholesterol levels were determined in the blood serum of Japanese quails infected with coccidia and treated with Baycox (active ingredient: toltrazuril). Lower levels of AST and ALT activity were noted in treated birds regardless of the applied Baycox dose. The biochemical ...

The quail raising in Brazil has increased through the last years and the incubation procedures are important to maintenance and improvement of quail egg production. To obtain a sufficient number of eggs to fill an incubator, eggs are usually accumulated in storage over a period from 1 day up to 3 weeks before incubation. The objective of this research was to verify the effect of egg storage on ...

the effect of dietary terbutaline, a beta adrenergic agonist, on carcass characteristics and blood attributes in 288 japanese quails was studied from 21 through 49 days of age. dietary treatments included four levels of terbutaline [0 (t0), 1 (t1), 3 (t3), and 5 (t5) mg/kg of the diet]. quails were bled at the end of the trial for biochemical assays and the carcass characteristics were then mea...

this experiment was performed in order to determine effects of different levels of dietary l-threonine supplementation in male japanese quails’ diets on immune response, small intestinal morphology, blood parameters and microflora.one hundred and forty four, 1-d old japanese quails have been selected and randomly distributed between six treatments and four replicates. basal ration was based on ...

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...
