Abstract One hundred and sixty of laying quail, 12 weeks old, were randomly placed on five treatments and five replicates in eight birds per replicate. They were kept according to the standard management for seven weeks. The basal diet comprised mainly corn, rice bran, soybean, and was mixed at 20% of protein content. Phytobiotic source was the noni extract (MC). Experimental diets were basal diet only (MC0), a basal diet with 0.01% of MC (MC1), a basal diet with 0.02% of MC (MC2), a basal diet with 0.03% of MC (MC3) and a basal diet with 0.04% of MC (MC4). Experimental birds were having free access to the diets and drinking water. The variables were feed intake, daily egg production, feed conversion ratio (FCR), and quality of egg including egg weight, yolk index, albumin index, eggshell thickness and haught unit (HU). Data were analysed using ANOVA and the Duncan test for comparison. The results proved that noni leaf extract supplementation in the quail diet produced a non-significant effect on feed intake, daily egg production, and egg quality (P>0.05), but it improved the eggshell thickness by 4.75% (P<0.05) and elevated the value of HU by 6.5% and improved FCR (P>0.05). In conclusion that noni leaf extract (MC) may improve quail performance, and egg quality by elevating the thickness of the eggshell.

Abstract In this study, the composition of chicken eggs from diets with various lutein levels was examined. This study involved a total of 120 laying hens. Treatments included lutein-free rations and lutein concentrations of 20, 40, 60, and 80 ppm. Each treatment was applied a total of eight times. Chickens are kept in cages with access to feeding and drinking areas. The analysis of the research data was conducted utilizing a completely random design. The parameters that were measured were the egg’s weight, its yolk, and its albumen. The components of eggs fed various dietary levels of lutein from marigold extract had not been significant (P>0.05) on all egg components stored for one day. However, the treatment had a significant impact (P<0.05) on the albumen index stored for 14 days, and the yolk to albumen ratio and albumen index for eggs stored for 21 days. This study concludes that for optimum albumen weight and index and the ratio of yolk and albumen stored for 14 and 21 days, a dose of 20 and 40 ppm in the diets is sufficient.

Fermentation has been practised in feed technology to bioconvert the inorganic minerals to organic compounds. A study was done to determine the effect of Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermented coconut dregs with the addition of selenium on growth performance, feed digestibility and the intestinal response of broiler chickens. The study used 112-day old unsexed broiler chicks for 6 weeks. The broilers were fed with 4 different experimental diets. The diets were basal diet (T1), basal diet plus 0.5% coconut dregs (T2), basal diet plus 0.5% of 5 days fermented coconut dregs (T3) and basal diet plus 0.5% of 7 days fermented coconut dregs (T4). The broilers were fed ad libitum and tap water was offered at all times. The broiler chicks were vaccinated against New Castle Diseases on the fourth day. Feeders and drinkers were placed inside the pen. The feeders, drinkers, pens and surroundings were cleaned whenever necessary. A completely randomized design was used in this study with four different treatment diets, four replicate cages of 7 birds each. The data found in this study was analyzed using an analysis of variance. A Tukey test was applied once a significant effect was detected in the analysis of variance. Results of the study indicate that body weight gain and dry matter digestibility increased when the birds were fed the diets T3 and T4. The relative gizzard weight of birds fed the T3 and T4 was lighter than the birds fed the T1 and T2. Feed intake, feed conversion ratio, carcass percentage and relative intestine weight were not affected by the experimental diets. In conclusion, feeding the birds with diets supplemented with Saccharomyces cerevisiae-fermented coconut dregs with additional selenium improved feed quality and broiler performance.

This study aimed to determine the blood profile, pH value of the small intestine and nutrient digestibility of native chickens fed functional diets with different energy and protein levels. The study used 192 DOC of native chickens with rearing up to 14 weeks old. The study was designed in a factorial completely randomized design with two factors. The first factor was the energy level (E1 = 2,800 kcal, E2 = 3,000 kcal), and the second factor was the protein level (P1 = 18%; P2 = 19%; P3 = 20%; P4 = 21%), each treatment had 4 replications. The feed ingredients used as functional feed in the ingredients of the ration i.e. yellow corn, rice bran, fish meal, soybeans grain, moringa leaves flour, turmeric flour, and Topmix® with the feed composition according to the treatment applied. Blood sampling, measurement of pH duodenum segment of the small intestine, and measurement of nutrient digestibility were performed on chickens after 12 weeks of age. The variables observed were blood profile, small intestinal pH, and nutrient digestibility. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance according to the design applied. The results showed that the effect of interaction between energy and protein level had a non-significant effect (P>0.05) on blood profile (hemoglobin, leucocyte, erythrocytes, platelets), small intestine pH, and nutrient digestibility. Similarly, also found the influence of a single factor of each energy and protein level. However, the treatments influenced a significant effect (P<0.05) on hematocrit and blood bilirubin values, and a highly significant effect (P<0.01) on total blood cholesterol. The study concluded that energy levels and protein levels had influenced significantly on blood profile, but not in pH intestine and nutrient digestibility.

The low quality of palm kernel meal (PKM) is due to the presence of high fibrous fraction. Fermentation of a low-quality feedstuff by using fungi could improve its quality. An experiment was done to determine the effect of fungi fermented palm kernel meal on the performance of broilers. Palm kernel meal was fermented by different fungi (Aspergillus niger, Trichoderma viride and Pleorotus ostreatus). The study used 200-day-old chicks and the chicks were randomly placed in brooder cages. The broilers were fed with starter and grower diets from days 1 to 21 and days 21 to 42 respectively. Feed and water were provided ad-libitum. The treatments diets were R1: basal diet (0% PKM), R2: (10% PKM), R3: 10% Aspergillus niger fermented PKM, R4: 10% Pleorotus ostreatus fermented PKM, R5: 10% Trichoderma viride fermented PKM, R6: 20% PKM, R7: 20% Aspergillus niger fermented PKM, R8: 20% Pleorotus ostreatus fermented PKM, R9: 20% Trichoderma viride fermented PKM. A completely randomized design was used in this study. Data were analyzed by the analysis of variance. The inclusion of 20% PKM in the diet decreased body weight gain and feed intake. Supplementation of the diets with 20% fungi fermented PKM could maintain body weight gain to the same level of those birds fed the basal diets. The percentage of gizzard weight was higher in birds fed the basal diet than the other treatment birds. In conclusion, fermentation of PKM with Aspergillus niger, Trichoderma viride and Pleorotus ostreatus could improve its quality. The performance of broilers fed the 20% PKM could be maintained provided.

The low quality protein of coconut meal, coupled with high fibre content, leads to limited use of this agricultural by-product in the poultry diet. Attempts to maximize the amount of coconut meal included in the broiler feed have been made through amino acids supplementation, enzyme addition and pelleting coconut meal. Among these feed technologies and manipulation, pelleting coconut meal appears to be more powerful in promoting the growth of broiler chickens. The reasons for the improvement of broiler growth due to pelleting coconut meal have not been established yet. The mechanisms of improved growth of birds might be through increased feed intake, less energy spent and increased bulk density. Coconut meal contains a high concentration of mannose – based polysaccharides or mannan. This substance has long been believed to have prebiotic properties due to its capability to bind certain species of pathogenic bacteria in the digestive tract of birds. Voluminous reports of the positive effects of mannose-based polysaccharides from yeast have been published. Mannose –based polysaccharides from legumes, on the other hand, have been reported to have anti-nutrient property. Surprisingly, mannose-based polysaccharides from coconut behave like yeast mannan. A number of current studies indicated that mannose based polysaccharides improved body weight gain and feed digestibility. The growth of birds was negatively impacted when the birds were challenged against pathogenic bacteria of E. coli. Wet droppings and diarrhea incidences were not found in E. coli-challenged birds when the diets were supplemented with coconut mannan. In conclusions, coconut meal can be used as a feed ingredient for poultry unless the coconut meal was pelleted or enzymatically treated. Mannose-based polysaccharide from coconut was effective to promote growth and acted as prebiotic.
