| Özet |
| In the study we examined the effects of dietary supplementation with Ferula communis L. on growth parameters, egg production, and egg quality parameters of Japanese quails. One hundred eighty eight-week-old Japanese quails during the laying period were randomly allocated to three groups, each comprising four replicates (15 quails per replicate) with a similar average body weight (186.35±2.13). One group (control) was given a standard diet without any additional supplementation, whereas the other groups were given diets with 0.1% or 0.2% Ferula communis L. root powder for eight weeks. The results showed statistically non-significant differences (P> 0.05) in the initial and final body weight and body weight changes among the groups. Egg production varied significantly (P< 0.05), whereas feed intake, egg weight, and feed conversion ratio remained statistically similar (P> 0.05) among the groups. Egg quality parameters, including yolk color, shell percentage, and albumin index, showed significant differences (P< 0.05). Notably, supplementation with 0.1% Ferula communis L. improved yolk color and albumin index but decreased egg production and shell percentage, whereas 0.2% supplementation increased egg production and shell percentage while decreasing yolk color and albumin index. In conclusion, Ferula communis L. is a suitable natural feed additive for laying quails, however, production goalspecific dosage considerations are recommended. |
