The effect of the level of maize distiller’s dried grains with solubles (DDGS) in diets for ducks and duration of the fattening period on feed efficiency, body weight, carcass and meat quality was studied. One hundred and sixty commercial Pekin ducklings were divided randomly into four groups (four replicates, each). From 1 to 21 days of age all birds received the same commercial feed, then from day...
After the ban of antibiotic growth promoters (AGP) in the EU many alternative substances have been investigated for their potential to replace AGPs. Phytobiotics are discussed as one promissing alternative due to their high content of pharmacologically active compounds. A huge number of in vitro and in vivo studies have confirmed a wide range of activities of phytobiotics in poultry nutrition like...
The study carried out on 56 fatteners was aimed at determining the effect of feeding level in the first period of fattening on their growth rate as well as their slaughter value and meat quality. Animals fed restricted amount of feed (-25%), as compared to those fed semi ad libitum, were characterised by lower daily body weight gains (p≤0.001), higher meatiness (p≤0.05) and more favorable fatty acid...
