Abstract |
A total number of 72 Matrouh laying hens (local strain) at 32 weeks of age were used to study the effect of using 50% wheat bran in the laying diets and the possibility to improve the feeding value of wheat bran (WB) when supplemented with some feed additives. Hens were housed in individual cages and were randomly divided into six equal treatments (12 birds each) and were approximately similar in their body weight. Treatment 1 birds were received the control diet contained 16% CP and 2703 kcal ME/Kg. Treatment 2 birds were received the basal wheat bran diet (WBdiet) contained 16.01% CP and 1841 Kcal ME/Kg. Birds of Treatments 3,4,5 and 6 were received the WB-diet supplemented with either 1.0% sodium sulphate (SS) , 0.1% kemzyme (KE) . 1.0% (SS) plus 0.1% (KE) . or 0.1 % (KE) plus 1.0% Radish extract (RE) , respectively. Birds were fed the experimental diets for three months. Results showed that WB-diet significantly reduced feed intake and numerically decreased egg number.
Addition of SS or KE + RE increased egg number and egg mass compared to hens fed WB-diet alone. WB-diet increased level of calcium and phosphorus in serum while decreased cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL) in yolk compared to hens fed control diet. It could be concluded that the detrimental effect of inclusion of 50% wheat bran in Matrouh laying hen diets can be overcome by addition of SS or KE+RE.
