Abstract

The aim of this study was investigate the effects of whole wheat scattered the litter on performance, carcass characteristics and viscosity and pH of excreta in male broilers. A total 336 male chicks (Ross-308) were randomly distributed into two dietary treatments of four replicates each. Same starter (0 to 21 d) and finisher diets (22 to 45 d) were used in both groups. All birds were given ad libitum access to feed and water throughout experimental period. From 8 to 21 days, whole wheat (10 g/bird/day) was randomly thrown on the litter in one of the experimental groups twice a day (at 0800 and 1200 h). Scattering whole wheat in the litter decreased body weight of male broilers at 21 d of age while increased at 45 d of age. Feed intake was not affected by whole wheat scatter treatment. From 22 to 45 and 0 to 45 d of age, feed conversion ratio significantly improved in group scattered whole wheat in the litter than control group. No significant differences were occurred among groups for mortality, carcass characteristics and excreta viscosity. However, pH value of excreta in group scattered whole wheat the litter showed significant reduction as compared control group. According to these results, scattering whole wheat the litter at an early stage affected the performance of male broilers positively.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, altık üzerine tüm dane buğday serpilmesinin etlik piliçlerde performans ve karkas özellikleri ile dışkı pH'sı ve viskozitesi üzerine etkilerini incelemektir. Toplam 336 adet günlük erkek civciv (Ross-308) rastgele her biri 4 tekerrürden oluşan 2 gruba ayrılmıştır. Her iki grupta da, 0-21. ve 22-45. günler arasında aynı başlatma ve bitirme yemleri kullanılmıştır. Deneme süresince tüm hayvanlara yem ve su ad-libitum olarak verilmiştir. Deneme gruplarından birine 8-21. günler arasında altık üzerine günde iki kez (saat 0800 ve 1200) rastgele tüm dane buğday (10 g/piliç/gün) serpilmiştir. Altık üzerine tüm dane buğday serpilmesi erkek piliçlerin canlı ağırlığını 21. günde azaltırken 45. günde artırmıştır. Yem tüketimi tüm dane buğday uygulamasından etkilenmemiştir. Yemden yararlanma altlık üzerine tüm dane buğday serpilen grupta 21- 45. ve 0-45. günler arasında kontrol grubuna göre önemli düzeyde iyileşmiştir. Ölüm oranı, karkas özellikleri ve dışkı viskozitesi bakımından gruplar arasında önemli düzeyde farklılıklar oluşmamıştır. Ancak, dışkı pH değeri altlık üzerine tüm dane buğday serpilen grupta kontrol grubuna kıyasla önemli düzeyde azalma göstermiştir. Bu sonuçlara göre, erken dönemde altık üzerine tüm dane buğday serpilmesi erkek etlik piliçlerin performansını olumlu etkilemiştir
