“…The findings in this study however, shows a slight difference from literature as the highest average daily feed intake was recorded consecutively at 10, 0, 5 and 15% inclusion levels of PSKA, with ash contents being highest at 0% inclusion level (7.59), followed by 15% (6.74), 10% (6.22) and least at 5% (5.44) inclusion level. The variability in feed intake due to ash content could be due to developing and growing nature of the chicks used as their GIT enzymes are still developing due to their young age (Coskun et al 2017). The high ash content in T 1 diet could also be due to bone meal having higher ash than PKSA.Also the low percentage weight for liver and small intestine are probably reflective of lower body weight due to reduced feed intake in these groups.…”

“…Several reports have consistently suggested the importance of the first seven days of broiler chicken's life, its influence on the overall performance of the bird and the need to provide adequate nutritional management at this period (Coskun et al 2017, Mahapatra et al 2017. Wahlström et al (2001) had reported that during the first seven days of a broiler's life, about 80% of its energy requirements is used for growth, while only about 20% is for maintenance; howeverthe bird's intestinal growth represents most of these body weight increases at this stage of development (Mahapatra et al 2017).…”

Evaluation of palm kernel shell ash (PKSA) as organic mineral supplement on broiler chicks performance was conducted. Ninety six Arbor Acre day old chicks were randomly assigned in 3 replicates of eight birds per replicate to four experimental diets containing graded levels of PKSA at 0, 5,10 and 15kg/ton of feed labeled T 1 , T 2 , T 3 and T 4 respectively. At 1 st week of life, the chicks were assessed for growth performance, digestive tract development, histology and digesta pH. The growth performance of the chicks were affected (P<0.05) by the supplementation on treatment groups in all parameters except the FCR. The digestive tract development shown by percentage crop weight, proventriculus weight, liver weight and large intestinal weights were significantly affected. The histological analysis of the villi shows that birds consuming T 1 and T 3 diets were more developed (p<0.05) than those consuming T 2 and T 4 diets. The pH of the digesta contents in the GIT of the various segments showed that PKSA supplementation affected (P<0.05) them except those in the proventriculus and large intestine.The quadratic function showed that only pH of digesta in crop and small intestine were positively influenced (P<0.05) among the significant parameters by optimum inclusion levels of 25% and 17.5% PKSA respectively. Therefore, PKSA could be used favorably in broiler chicks production at levels of up to 10%.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of in ovo resveratrol in hatching quail eggs on hatching traits, organ weights and chick performance. The eggs were randomly distributed into four groups as non-injected group (PC; Positive control), 0.2 ml saline (NC; Negative control), 0.2 ml solution containing 1 nmol of resveratrol (R1) and 0.2 ml solution containing 4 nmol of resveratrol (R4). Hatchability of set eggs (HSE) and hatchability of fertile eggs (HFE), embryonic mortality (EM), chick hatching time, yolk sac weight (YSW), and chick performance characteristics were investigated. The effects of in ovo resveratrol administration on the HSE were insignificant. HFE decreased significantly with in ovo resveratrol treatment. All injected groups were adversely affected in terms of embryonic deaths. The effect of in ovo resveratrol application on chick hatch weight, and YSW (g, %), chick performance was insignificant. It was observed that in ovo resveratrol treatment had no significant effect on the hatching time, except at 408 h of incubation. As a result, in ovo resveratrol application had a negative effect on hatchability and EM, but did not have affected the hatching time, YSW and chick performance.

“…The effect of different levels of PEs or their derivatives on hatching, productive and immune results through IO has been studied by researchers, who examined, for instance, α-galactoside of lupin seeds (Villaluenga et al, 2004), αgalactoside of pea (Pilarski et al, 2005), caffeine (McGruder et al, 2011), grape seed (Hajati et al, 2014), pollens of sunflower (Coşkun et al, 2014), wheat (Tako et al, 2014), garlic, tomato (Fazli et al, 2015), thyme, savory (Saki and Salary, 2015), or Silybum marianum (Morovata et al, 2016). It is worth mentioning that some PEs were tested for their antiviral (Rezatofighi et al, 2014) and antimicrobial activity (Burt, 2004), as natural anticoccidial (Dalloul et al, 2006), as biological antioxidants reacting with free radicals (Wallace et al, 2010), for anti-inflammatory activity of the phytochemicals contained (Sahin et al, 2013) and for immunostimulant functions (Frankic et al, 2009).…”

Time of sexual maturity and early egg quality of Japanese quails affected by in ovo injection of medicinal plants

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The aim of this study was to evaluate the time to sexual maturity and quality of initial eggs of Japanese quail affected by in ovo injection of plant extracts: ginger (GR), garlic (GC), oregano (O) and cinnamon (C). In total, 2400 eggs of Japanese quails were divided into six groups on the fifth day of incubation. Group I was the control group (NC), which was not injected. Other eggs were injected with 0.1 mL of liquid: group II – the positive control (PC) – with distilled water, group III with 1 % solution of GR, group IV with GC, group V with O and group VI with C. After hatching, the birds were reared in a cage system and fed with balanced mixtures, and 24 h lighting was used. The time at which birds reached sexual maturity was registered, while in the seventh week of rearing, 120 eggs were subject to quality evaluation. The traits of a whole egg (shape index as the ratio of egg width to egg length, weight, specific gravity), shell (strength, weight, thickness and density), albumen (weight, height), yolk (color, weight, index) were evaluated. At the earliest, on 36th day of life, eggs were laid by birds from the GC group, followed by C (37th day), O and NC (38th day), GR (39th day), and PC (41st day). During the first 2 weeks significantly more eggs were collected from the GC than from the other groups. The heaviest eggs derived from GC and GR groups, whereas the lightest came from the C group. Eggs from the GC group had the best shell strength and the greatest proportion of yolk. The use of medicinal herbs by injection in ovo may considerably modify both time of sexual maturity and quality of the initial eggs of Japanese quail.
