Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

This study was carried out to determine the effects of rations containing 5, 10 and 15 % common vetch ( Vicia sativa L.) on live weight gain, feed consumption, feed efficiency, carcass yield and total protein and lipid values of blood serum of quails. A total of 300 daily Japanese quail chicks ( Coturnix coturnix japonica) were used in this experiment. They were divided into one control group and three treatment groups each containing 75 quail chicks. The experimental period lasted five weeks. At the end of the study live weights of 2. and 3. groups fed the rations containing …

Restricted Growth Of Broilers 1. Effects Of Different Restricted Feeding Programs On Broilerperformance And Carcass Characteristics, Özge Altan, Sezen Özkan, Servet Yalçin

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

In this study, the influence of different methods of feed restriction on the performance of broiler with two genotypes, was investigated. Compensatory growth after feed restriction was studied and the effects of the restriction on feed consumption, growth and carcass characteristics were discussed. Broilers in each genotypes were separated in three groups randomly. In the first group, all birds were fed fully (Control). Feed restriction at the level of basal metabolism were used from 7 to 14 days of age in second group, and from 14 to 21 days of age in third group. There has been evidence of compensatory …
