“…The relative weight of gizzard was higher in T3 group in comparison to the other groups at days 14 and 28 of age. These findings are in agreement with those reported by El-Husseiny et al (2008) who observed that feed deprivation during the first 48 h posthatch affected intestinal organ development. The current findings suggested that early access to feed rich in CP content or containing molasses stimulates the growth of the small intestine and gizzard.…”

“…The relative weight of abdominal fat significantly increased by AFW during the transportation. This observation did not agree with the report from El-Husseiny et al (2008) who did not find any effect of moment of first nutrition (ranging between one to 7 days after hatch) on abdominal fat in broiler chickens. In this study, early access to feed and water resulted in higher live weight and higher FC at the slaughter age of 42 d. Therefore, higher breast fillet, and higher abdominal fat probably associated with increased feed intake in this group.…”

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of transport duration and access to feed and water during the transportation of broiler chicks on growth performance, yolk sac weight, development of intestine and immune organs, and carcass yields of broilers. Material and methods:A total of 256 Cobb broiler chicks were obtained from a commercial hatchery. Depending on the treatment, chicks were divided into 4 groups and subjected to either 1.5 h (DS) or 6.0 h (DL) transportation with (AFW) or without access to feed and water (NFW) during the transportation. Chicks from each subgroup were assigned to 4 floor pens (16 pens in total) and reared until 42 d. Results:Our results confirmed that AFW improved body weight, breast fillet, food consumption, yolk sac weight at day 2, and development of immune and intestinal at day 42, (7 d) as compared with the NFW. Our study also indicated that DL group attempted to compensate their growth retardation by increasing their feed intake during the first week of their lives as compared to DS group. However, DL group broilers did not catch up with the broilers from DS group at slaughter age and had worse FCR. Conclusion:This study shows that there is a positive effect on broiler performance by providing feed and water during the transportation. ÖZAmaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı bir günlük etlik civcivlerde taşıma süresi ve taşıma sırasında yem ve su verilmesinin büyüme performansı, sarı kese ağırlığı, sindirim ve bağışıklık organlarının gelişmesi ve karkas verimine etkisini belirlemektir.Materyal ve Metot: Ticari bir kuluçkahaneden 256 adet Cobb etlik civciv temin edilmiştir. Civcivler rasgele 4 gruba ayrılmış ve 1.5 saat (DS) veya 6.0 saat (DL) boyunca yem ve su sağlanmış (AFW) ya da sağlanmamış (NFW) olarak taşımaya maruz bırakılmışlardır. Taşımadan sonra her grup 4 adet yer bölmesine yerleştirilmiş (toplam 16 bölme) ve 42. güne kadar büyütülmüştür.Bulgular: Sonuçlar AFW uygulamasının NFW'e kıyasla 42. gün canlı ağırlığı iyileştirdiğini, göğüs eti, yem tüketimi ve 2. gün sarı kese ağırlığını artırdığını, erken yaşta (7 gün) bağışıklık ve sindirim organlarının gelişimini iyileştirdiğini göstermiştir. Çalışma aynı zamanda DL uygulamasının DS'e göre çıkış günü canlı ağırlığı düşürdüğünü ve DL grubunun DS'e kıyasla ilk hafta yem tüketimini artırarak telafi edici büyüme çabası içinde olduğuna işaret etmektedir. Ancak, DL grubu kesim yaşında DS grubunun canlı ağırlığına ulaşamamış ve daha kötü FCR elde edilmiştir. Sonuç: Çalışma,taşıma süresinden bağımsız olarak günlük civcivlere taşıma sırasında yem ve su sağlanmasının etlik piliç performansını olumlu etkilediğini göstermiştir.

“…This may occur because glucose is absorbed with no additional enzymatic activity, which yields no stimulation of intestinal processes. These results in consist with El-Husseiny et al (2008) who indicated that a decrease in body weight gains and higher feed to gain ratio, resulting from holding chicks without feed, continued to affect chicks up to 6 weeks post hatch. The overall FCR was not affected by delay in first feeding (Abed et al, 2011).…”

“…While, Juul -Madsen et al (2004), Vargas et al (2009) and Rammouz et al (2011) found that post hatching delay in feed access did not affect chicken body weight at market age. El-Husseiny et al (2008) indicated that a decrease in body weight gains and higher feed to gain ratio, resulting from holding chicks without feed, continued to affect chicks up to 6 weeks post hatch.…”

A total of 132 one day old Ross (308) broiler chickens were used to determine the effect of four treatments (feed program) on broiler performance and economic index. At delivery the chicks were weighted. As well as, the body weight, weight gain, feed intake, feed conversion ratio was recorded at day 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42. Economic index was recorded at 42. Four treatments includes: feeding immediately after delivery in the hatchery and continue to the farm (T1); fasting for 12 hours after hatch with access to water (T2); fasting for 12 hours with access to water containing 5% sugar followed by feeding the diet (T3); or feeding a diet immediately at the farm (T4). Interaction between treatments and different periods, were significantly (p<0.05) effected on body weight, although, the effect of treatments at each period did not significant. Overall of body weight/ period was significantly (p<0.05) higher at day 42 followed by the least periods. Significant (p<0.05) effect of interaction between treatments with periods, treatments and periods were observed in feed intake and weight gain. Feed conversion ratio did not significantly affected by different periods. Economic index did not significantly affected by different treatments. Values of economic index were numerally influenced of: body weight, body weight gain, feed intake, viability% and feed conversion ratio.
