rice bran (rb) is a major by-product, produced from the rice milling process. this study was conducted to evaluate the performance, egg quality, and blood biochemical parameters of 288 hy-line laying hens fed diets with rice bran and commercial microbial phytase natuphos®5000. the experiment was a 4×2 factorial one with four rb levels (0, 5, 10, and 15%) by two phytase levels (0 and 5000 ftu/kg...

The experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of supplementing laying hen diets with different percentages of black tea factory waste (BTFW), evaluating performance, egg quality, yolk oxidation, and blood parameters. Twenty-four-week-old Lohmann layers (n=144) were divided into six dietary treatment groups (24 hens each), which were fed standard commercial diets supplemented with 0% (c...

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of different body weight groups (light (L) = 1 400–1 500; medium (M) = 1 500–1 600 and heavy (H) = 1 600 < g) on performance and egg quality traits of Lohmann hens, 24 weeks of age, in different laying periods. A total of 288 Lohmann White layers were allocated randomly to three groups with respect to live weight, each consisting of 24 replic...

in this study, the effects of culban seed (vicia peregrine l.) on live body weight, feed intake, feed efficiency, egg production, egg quality characteristics, egg yolk fatty acid profiles and yolk cholesterol content in laying hens were investigated. the experiment consists of seven treatment groups with ten replications containing one laying hen in each and for 32 weeks old seventy laying hen ...
