GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF BROILER CHICKENS FED DIETS SUPPLEMENTED WITH BLENDS OF ORGANIC ACIDS

Performance of broiler chickens fed diets supplemented with blends of organic acids was investigated. Three hundred broiler chickens were assigned to five treatment groups, each replicated three times with twenty birds per replicate in a completely randomized design. The chickens in the control treatment were fed the basal diet while all othe...

GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF GIANT AFRICAN LAND SNAIL FED DIFFERENT CALCIUM SOURCES

Aminu S A*, Falade L O, Badmus K A

The effect of wood ash, bone meal, egg shell and calcium carbonate as different calcium sources were investigated in the diet of growing snails for 8 weeks. A total of 100 growing snails were randomly allotted to 5 groups, each group replicated 4 times at 5 snails per replicate making 20 snails per treatment in a completely randomized design. Feeds...
