four hundred fifty day old unsexed broiler chicks were used in a 35-day trial at chittagong veterinary and animal sciences university farm to find out the effect of using crude soybean oil sediment (csos) as a substitute for refined soybean oil (rso) in broiler diet. the experiment was carried out following completely randomized design. the chicks were randomly distributed in three treatment gr...

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of some feed restriction regimes on the performance, carcass characteristics and hematological values of broiler chickens. A number of 480 one-day-old Cobb broilers were distributed into 24 floor pens and reared for 42 days. A basal diet was formulated according to the NRC (1994) recommendations for starter (1-11 d), grower (12-28 d) and fini...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary salvia mirzayanii supplementation on performance, carcass characteristics, internal organs and cecal microbial population in broilers. a total of 200, one-day-old broiler chicks (ross 308) were fed five experimental diets containing different levels of s. mirzayanii (zero, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and one percent of diet) until 42 days of...

background: nutritional strategies targeting improvement of poultry performance and disease prevention are currently being developed and in this respect the dietary intake of spiced essential oils and pre-biotics in raising broilers is receiving attention. objectives: this study was conducted to compare the effects of diet containing ginger essential oils (geo) and mannan-oligosaccharide (mos) ...

An experiment was conducted to study the effect of broiler breeder feeding management practices on pullet performance, BW uniformity, and carcass traits during rearing (to 22 wk of age). At 3 wk of age, 1,200 Ross 308 breeder pullets were assigned to one of 5 treatments: 1) control: standard mash diet, fed daily; 2) high fiber: mash diet containing 25% lower nutrient density, fed daily; 3) scat...

The high cost of imported fishmeal as animal protein source is one the limiting factors in raising broiler chickens particularly Nigeria. Maggots are housefly larvae that rich which could be used alternative to production. This study assessed differently processed Maggot Meal (MM) replacement for broilers diet a completely randomized design. A total 144 day old Arbor Acre were randomly divided ...

Objective: The aim of this experiment was to determine chemical composition, protein quality of corn gluten meal (CGM) and its effect on growth performance of broiler chicks. Methods: Chemical composition and nitrogen corrected true metabolizable energy of CGM was determined by standard and precision-fed cockerel assay methods.  For evaluating of protein quality, 90 male broiler chicks in a com...
