The Impact of Genotype and Age on Energy and Protein Utilization in Individually Housed Brown Laying Hens
Responses to dietary energy and protein levels were compared between two egg-laying genotypes. Individually housed hens of a historic strain (HS) and a modern strain (MS) were compared. In Experiment 1 (Exp.1), four levels of true metabolizable energy, corrected for zero nitrogen retention (TME<s...
