| description | A total of 120, 28-week-old White Leghorn hens were randomly selected to study the
effect of dietary inclusion of flaxseed oil (FSO) , fish oil (FO) and their combinations on production
performance and egg quality traits in White Leghorn hens and the birds were divided into six
treatments that had four replicates of five birds each. The experimental groups were fed with control
diet and diet containing 5.0 per cent FSO, 5.0 per cent FO, 2.5 per cent FSO + 2.5 per cent FO,
3.5 per cent FSO + 1.5 per cent FO and 1.5 per cent FSO +3.5 per cent FO. The experiment was
conducted from 29 to 40 weeks of age comprising three, 28-day periods. The obtained
data on statistical analysis, did not reveal any significant difference in body weight, egg
production, feed intake, feed conversion ratio, egg weight and egg quality traits of White
Leghorn hens among all the treatment groups at all the periods of age. |
