“…On the other hand, there are insignificant differences among hens in control group and hens fed Nigella sativa meal treatments in the final body weight and total feed intake (Table 3). These enhancements in egg production, egg weight, egg mass and feed conversion under heat stress may be due to nigellone, thymoquinone and phenolic compounds of NSM, these substances of MSN act as anti-stress (Tollba and Hassan, 2003) antioxidant (Mariod et al 2009) antimicrobial and antifungal activity (Rathee et al, 1982;Hanafy and Hatem, 1991;Akhtar et al, 2003;Nickavara et al, 2003) The previous results agreement with Saleh et al, 2020;Aydin et al, 2006 andYalcın et al, 2009 who shown that using different levels of Nigella sativa seed or cumin meal supplementation significantly improved egg production, egg shell thickness of laying hens. Additionally, Zeweil (1996) found that the performance of growing Japanese quail fed diets containing 6.25 or 13.50% NSM were significantly improved as compared to the control one.…”

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of different levels of Nigella Sativa meal (NSM) on productive performance and some hematological parameters of laying hens under hot conditions. A total number of 120 laying hens (34 weeks old -Commercial Browne Lohmann LSL) and body weight of 1996.90±18.75 g were used in this study. Chickens were randomly divided into four equal treatments (30 chickens of each). Each treatment was randomly divided into 3 equal replicates (10 chickens of each).The 1 st treatment, chickens fed basal diet and considered as control group (C). The 2 nd , 3 rd and 4 th treatments, chickens were fed diets supplemented with 5, 10 and 15 % NSM, respectively). The results showed that egg weight, egg number and feed conversion were improved (P<0.05) in the laying hens fed 10 and 15 % NSM compared with other groups. However, egg shell thickness was increased (P<0.05) in the hens fed 5, 10 and 15 % NSM compared to control group. Red blood cells and hemoglobin concentration were increased (P<0.05) in the hens fed high level of NSM (15 %) compared to hens in control group. Adding NSM at level 15 % led to significantly decreased in serum total protein, albumin, globulin, glucose and cholesterol when compared with control group. While, creatinine level was significantly increased at level 5 % of NSM compared with other levels of NSM and control group. Using NSM by rate 5, 10 and 15 % in the chicken diets led to a decrease in the cost of feed and this in turn contributed to the improvement of net income/hen. In conclusion, under hot conditions, use Nigella Sativa meal up to level 15 % as a source of alternative feed resources enhancement the productive performance and physiological responses of laying hens.

“…Mathlouthi et al indicated that dietary supplementation with the essential oils of thyme, sage, and rosemary substantially increased FCR ( p < 0.05) [ 26 ]. The usage of 1.0% oregano in the diet improved egg production and egg weight in hens according to Radwan et al [ 27 ]. Moreover, these medicinal herbs are rich in flavonoids, improving the immune system and generating antibodies [ 28 ].…”

This study aimed to assess the effect of dietary supplementation with different levels of Salvia officinalis and/or Origanum majorana on productive performance, ovarian follicular development, lipid peroxidation, antioxidative status, and egg quality in laying hens. Two hundred and ninety-four 45-week-old Bovans brown hens were allocated into seven groups, with seven replicates of six hens each. The first group was fed with the basal considered as a control (A); the second (B) and third (C) groups were provided with the same control diet further supplemented with 0.5 and 1 kg/ton Salvia officinalis, respectively; the fourth (D) and fifth (E) groups received the control diet further supplemented with 0.5 and 1 kg/ton Origanum majorana, respectively; while the sixth (F) and the seventh (G) groups were offered a diet supplemented with 0.5 kg/ton Salvia officinalis and 0.5 kg/ton Origanum majorana and 1 kg/ton Salvia officinalis and 1 kg/ton Origanum majorana, respectively. No significant effects were observed in the final body weight (BW) and feed intake (FI) of the laying hens. In the diets supplemented with Salvia officinalis and Origanum majorana, the egg weights for groups C, F, and G had significantly higher values only compared to group D. The supplementation of the diets with Salvia officinalis and/or Origanum majorana significantly (p < 0.05) increased the Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and estradiol estrogenic hormone concentration, except for Origanum majorana at both levels with regard to estradiol. The dietary utilization of Salvia officinalis and Origanum majorana did not significantly alter the plasma glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) and glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), total protein, albumin, globulin, and High density lipoprotein (HDL) parameters. Cholesterol, glucose, triglyceride, and Low density lipoprotein (LDL) were decreased (p < 0.05) in the birds fed with Salvia officinalis and/or Origanum majorana supplemented diets. Moreover, at both doses, the dietary supplementation with Salvia officinalis and Origanum majorana decreased (p < 0.05) the yolk cholesterol and liver Malondialdehyde (MDA) levels. In addition, the dietary enrichment with Salvia officinalis and/or Origanum majorana decreased (p < 0.05) the palmitoleic and stearic fatty acids’ egg yolk concentration. In contrast, the yolk linoleic fatty acid concentration was significantly increased by Salvia officinalis and/or Origanum majorana. In conclusion, dietary supplementation with Salvia officinalis and/or Origanum positively affected productive performance, ovarian follicular development, antioxidant activity, hormonal status, and steroidogenesis in Bovans brown laying hens.

“…Mango (Emshaw et al., 2012), guava (Lira et al., 2009) and apple (Ayhan et al., 2009) already proved to be cheap and suitable sources of nutrients for poultry. Moreover, extensive studies have been carried out to unveil the potential of varieties of seed meals for poultry including blue lupin (Al‐Sagan et al., 2020), cumin (Saleh et al., 2020), flaxseeds and/or fenugreek seeds (Saleh et al., 2019), pumpkin seed (Martínez et al., 2010), sunflower seed (Rama Rao et al., 2006) and cotton seed (Swiatkiewicz et al, 2016). Variety of herbal plants have also been explored in poultry nutrition to improve productivity, immune response and health status (Aroche et al., 2018); (Haselmeyer et al., 2014); (Saleh et al., 2018); (Navid et al., 2014); (Gerzilov et al., 2015); (Saki et al., 2014).…”

In the search for alternative feed resources for laying hens, papaya pomace is available as industrial by‐product but information on its nutritive value is lacking. Dried papaya pomace was included in a common laying hen diet at 0%, 2.5%, 5% and 7.5% to evaluate its effect on egg production performance, egg quality and general health parameters in Bovan brown layers. For every inclusion level, three cages with ten 20‐week‐old layers were used, making a total of 120 hens. The effect of dried papaya pomace inclusion on egg production, egg quality and general health parameters was evaluated. Dried papaya pomace inclusion improved egg production and laying by 6.15% and 17% respectively, while it significantly decreased feed conversion ratio by 7.5%. Eggshell weight, thickness and strength of PP5 were higher than the control by 0.3 g, 0.8 mm and 0.43 kg/cm2, respectively. There was a significant improvement in albumin weight (by 1.5 g/L), albumin height (2.1 mm), yolk weight (0.4 g/L), yolk height (0.4 mm), yolk colour (4.4 points) and Haugh unit (8 points) due to PP5 treatment. Inclusion of papaya pomace at a level of 7.5% of layers diet had negative effect on Egg production, feed conversion ratio and interior and exterior egg quality traits. Inclusion of papaya pomace affected significantly serum total cholesterol, serum triglyceride, serum low density lipoprotein, serum high density lipoprotein, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase and white blood cell count. However, all blood traits of the experimental animals were within the normal ranges reported for layers. Inclusion of papaya pomace in 5% of layers commercial diets improves egg production and quality without negative impact on health while decreasing feeding cost.
