Marigold flower extract, a natural pigment, was used to determine its effect on carcass and skin pigmentation, immunity and growth performance of broiler chickens. Two hundred and forty 1-day-old Arbor Acres broiler chicks were randomly distributed into four treatment groups with six replicates in a randomized block design. Birds were fed basal diet for 42 d with or without supplementation of m...

this experiment was conducted in order to determine the effects of different dietary growth promoters on growth performance and nutrient digestibility in male broiler chickens. a total of 360 male broiler chicks (day-old ross 308 strain) were distributed into a completely randomized design (crd) having 6 dietary treatments with four replicates and 15 birds in each replicate. experimental treatm...

The effects of antibiotic, probiotic, and prebiotic as dietary feed additives on carcass composition as well as Salmonella counts and its serotypes in droppings and intestine of broiler chickens on days 1, 28, and 56 of experiment were investigated. Dietary treatments were control diet (basal diet without additives), OXYT diet (basal diet with 600 ppm of the antibiotic oxytetracycline), GRO-UP ...

This study looked at the effects of processed kola nut husks meal (PKHM) utilization as a feed ingredient on broiler chicken in 42-day feeding trial. Kola pod were into PKHM using ash treatment and rumen liquor fermentation. Three experimental diets developed both starter finisher phases, with included 0, 4, 8%, dubbed 1, 2, 3, respectively. In fully randomized design, 240 Arbor Acres chicks ra...

the aim of this experiment was to study the effects of hydrochloric and butyric acids addition to broiler diets on performance, carcass characteristics, intestinal microbial population and intestinal histology. two hundred eighty ross 308 one-day old female broiler chicks were assigned to 7 dietary treatments and 4 replicates of 10 chicks in a completely randomized design. experimental treatmen...

an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary crude protein (cp) and lysine levels on performance and nitrogen excretion in broiler chickens. four hundred twenty 7-day old chickens from ross 308 strain were randomly allotted to 6 dietary treatments with 5 replicates of 14 chicks each (7 male and 7 female chicks). the cp levels were 17, 18, and 20 percent and lysine levels were ...

this study was conducted using one hundred and eighty (180) day-old broiler chicks, of anak strain to assess the levels of inclusion of indomie waste meal as a substitute for maize at 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100%. the birds were randomly assigned to dietary treatments using completely randomized design (crd). each treatment contained 3 replicates and each replicate had 6 birds. the study lasted for e...

an experiment was conducted on 240 one-day old ross 308 broiler chicks using a completely randomized design in a 2×3 factorial arrangement with two levels of nano-adjuvant (with and without) and three levels of dietary protein (low, medium and high) during a 42 d experimental period. the main effect of protein density on feed intake was significant during the starter and grower periods (p

six hundred day old unsexed broiler chicks were used in a 42-d trial at chittagong veterinary and animal sciences university poultry farm to find out the effects of different oils on productive performance of broilers. the chicks were randomly distributed following a completely randomized design in four treatment groups having three replications per treatment. each treatment had 150 birds, with...
