| Abstract |
The experiment study examined the effect of dietary fluoride (Na F) and aluminum A12 (SO4)3 on laying hen performance. A total number of 108 White Hy-Line hen were housed in individually cages (4hen /cage) and divided into three equal groups. They were fed a diet supplemented with 0, 1300- ppm F and 1300-ppm F plus 1080-ppm Al, respectively. The body weight, egg mass, feed consumption, feed conversion, egg quality measurements and blood parameters were taken. It could be noticed that high F intake significantly depressed body weight, egg mass, feed consumption and feed conversion ratio. However, these depressions were not as saver when Al was present in the diet. Also, the depression in performance due to F feeding was not simply due to the depressed feed intake but was a result of metabolic function of F.
With respect to blood parameters, it could be noticed that the high F intake significantly decreased hematoctrit level, plasma calcium and phosphorus. However, dietary Al minimized the effect of high fluoride toxicty.
