Effects of dietary oil sources, calcium and phosphorus levels on growth performance, carcass characteristics and bone quality of broiler chickens

Abstract: The study investigated the effects of varying dietary calcium (Ca) level and oil sources on the growth performance and carcass quality of broiler chickens. A total of 378, 1-day-old birds (Cobb 500) were fed either 6% palm oil, soybean oil (SO) or linseed oil (LO) in combination with three dietary levels of calcium (1.00%, 1.25% and 1.50%) for 6 weeks. Birds fed SO had higher body weight (BW) compared with those fed LO (p < .05). However, feed efficiency, carcass and bone quality were similar among the oil tre… Show more

“…No significant ( P > 0.05) difference was observed in terms of feed intake among the dietary treatments throughout the entire experimental period, thus the improvement of live weight gain may be due to the increase in absorption of nutrients and its digestibility as reflected by improved feed efficiency. The findings are in agreement with Abdulla et al () who reported broilers fed PO, soybean oil and linseed oil did not influenced the feed intake but affected the body weight gain.…”

“…In other studies, researchers found that the accumulation of energy and fat in chicken recipient lard was higher than those fed with sunflower oil (Sanz et al, 2000). In broiler chickens, Abdulla et al (2017) did not observe any effect of tested dietary energy sources on slaughter yield, breast and leg percentages from grill weight. In contrast to the results of this research, Poorghasemi et al (2013) showed no significant effect of dietary lipid source on relative weights of the liver, heart and gizzar d in broiler chickens.…”

“…The Ca requirement in modern broilers has been recently reported ( Applegate et al., 2003 , Li et al., 2012 , Li et al., 2015 , Li et al., 2016 , Li et al., 2016 , Abdulla et al., 2017 , Kim et al., 2018b ). The heightened interest in dietary Ca-related studies is due to its effect on phytase efficacy.…”
