“…Cutlip et al (2008) reported that the best quality pellets (PDI, 90 versus 80%) produce a lower feed conversion and higher yield of breast meat. An improvement of only 4% in PDI can contribute significantly to the performance of broilers.…”

Feed related costs are the main drivers of profitability of commercial poultry farms, and good nutrition is mainly responsible for the exceptional growth rate responses of current poultry species. So far, most research on the poultry feeding behaviour addresses the productivity indices and birds' physiological responses, but few studies have considered the biomechanical characteristics involved in this process. This paper aims to review biomechanical issues related to feed behaviour of domestic chickens to address some issues related to the feed used in commercial broiler chicken production, considering feed particle size, physical form and the impact of feeders during feeding. It is believed that the biomechanical evaluation might suggest a new way for feed processing to meet the natural feeding behaviour of the birds.

“…To improve pellet quality, the level of heat is often increased during conditioning (Spring et al, 1996;Cutlip et al, 2008;Abdollahi et al, 2010) which changes the functional properties of proteins and starch. However, an increase in the temperature can be detrimental for activity of heat sensitive bioactives (i.e., enzymes, probiotics) or nutrient availability (i.e., vitamins, amino acids).…”

“…Heating with high pressure treatments in the pelleting process did not interfere the availability of amino acid and energy and may decrease the feed conversion (Serrano et al 2013;Cerrate et al 2009;Cutlip et al 2008). Pelleting has also been proven increasing the effectiveness of inhibiting growth of the fungi on the feed (Tabib et al 1984).…”

Wastes of hatchery industries could potentially be used as an alternative feed resource, but had disadvantages in the organoleptic and physical performances. Experiment of pelleting process which was enriched with zeolite was done to improve the physical-organoleptic characters, so it may easy and attractive on handling before being used as an alternative feedstuff to support provision of local feed ingredients. The study was assigned in a completely randomized design with 6 treatments of zeolite additions (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5%) and 5 replications. Parameters observed are texture, smell, color and durability of pellet. Data of the parameter such as texture, smell, color were analyzed qualitatively, whereas the parameter of durability was analyzed by analysis of variance. The results found that the texture and color of pellets were not affected by the presence of zeolite, but the odor was significantly eliminated by increasing level of zeolite in the pelleting process. The fishy and foul smell of the hatchery wastes immediately vanished with increasing levels of zeolite. Durability of pellet was not significantly affected by the addition of zeolite. It is concluded that the addition of zeolite in hatchery waste pellet was able to improve the physical performances of hatchery wastes.
