“…Ribeiro et al (2007) reported no change between treatments for egg shell by utilizing different levels of linoleic acid, 1.93g/100g and 1.48g/100g linoleic acid in the diet of chickens during 27-40 weeks of age, based on egg weight and composition. Al-Daraji et al (2011) found that the addition of oil in the diet of laying birds resulted in a substantial increase in shell weight and shell thickness, which is in line with our results of 28 weeks. The findings of Aziza et al (2013) supported our results.…”

“…Pariza et al (2000) discovered that linoleic acid greatly affected egg weight, mostly through an effect on yolk weight and lipid content. Al-Daraji et al (2011) reported that adding fish and maize oil to the diet of laying hens resulted in a substantial increase in egg weight. Yan Zhang et al (2017) found that dietary linoleic acid supplementation at all doses was related with considerably greater egg weight.…”

Among a number of factors that influence egg size in laying pullets, the most significant one is the nutrition of the laying hens. Dietary supplementation of oils enriched with linoleic acid, for example, soya oil, has a positive impact on egg size. The current experiment was aimed at assessing the impact of dietary soya oil as a source of linoleic acid on egg quality, egg size in particular, and the laying performance of commercial laying hens. A total of 48 NovoGen-Brown layers aged 22 weeks were allocated at random to three dietary treatments, with four replications per treatment, and each replication consisted of four birds. Three different types of diets namely T 1 (control diet), T 2 (control + 1.5 % soya oil), T 3 (control + 2.5 % soya oil) were fed for 15 weeks. Diets supplemented with 1.5% soya oil and 2.5 % soya oil significantly improved the egg weight and positively influenced egg production. Egg mass was numerically better due to the supplementation of both doses of soya oil at dietary levels. Percent eggshell significantly increased in eggs assessed for quality at 28 weeks in 2.5% soya oil supplemented group. Shape index, yolk color score and boiled egg weight were not affected by soya oil supplementation. Taken all together, it may be concluded that the dietary supplementation of 1.5% soya oil positively influenced laying performance and egg quality characteristics of commercial layers. So, a commercial layer diet supplemented with 1.5 % soya oil may be considered to improve the egg size and other performance parameters as well as the egg quality of laying hens.

This study aimed to evaluate the inclusion of pirarucu by-product acid silage meal in diets for laying hens on performance and egg quality. One hundred sixty eight Hissex White laying hens 73-wk-old were distributed in completely randomized design with seven treatments (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0%) and four replicates of six birds each. The experiment lasted 84 days divided into four periods of 21 days. Estimates of pirarucu by-product meal levels were determined by polynomial regression. Differences (p<0.05) were observed in all variables of performance, in egg weight, yolk height and yolk pigmentation, with pirarucu by-product meal inclusion in diets showed better results than control diet. The pirarucu by-product acid silage meal can be used as alternative food in diets for commercial laying hens. Up to the 2.5% inclusion level there wasn't negative effect in performance and egg quality.

“…Zynudheen et al (2008) has reported a non significant effect of the dietary supplementation of fermented fish silage from surimi waste in quail diet on their egg weight.

“…This could be due to the high fat content in the visceral fish waste silage used as feed ingredient which resulted in higher fat content in the diet. Al Daraji et al (2011) in their study have described that inclusion of fish oil in the quail diet resulted in no significant change in mean albumen weight but increased the mean yolk weight. The highest shell thickness of eggs in control group (0% silage) (Fig.…”

Five weeks old layer Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) birds (180 nos) were randomly distributed into 4 dietary groups with 3 replicates each for 98 days to study the effect of dietary inclusion of acid ensiled fish waste silage on the production performance, egg quality, feed cost, and serum biochemical profile. Fish meal in control diet was replaced by supplementing fish silage at 3%, 6% and 12% of the diet. Significant increase in egg production (p<0.05) and the lowest feed conversion ratio were recorded when birds were fed with 3% silage. But the egg production or feed conversion ratio was not adversely affected by 6% or 12% inclusion of fish silage. Egg quality attributes like weight, shape index, Haugh score, albumen index or yolk index did not differ significantly with the increasing content of silage in the feed. The yolk concentration increased significantly (p<0.05) with increase in fish silage in the diet. The concentration of serum biochemical constituents (total protein, albumen, globulin, cholesterol, triglyceride, alkaline phosphatase, urea and creatinine concentration) did not vary significantly (p>0.05) among the treatments. Serum glucose concentration was the highest in birds fed with 3% fish silage. Lowest cost of feed/kg egg mass was obtained by inclusion of 3% of fish silage in the diet. It was concluded that acid ensilage from freshwater fish waste can replace fishmeal in layer Japanese quail diets without affecting the production of birds besides resulting in reduction of feed cost.
