Abstract

The study aimed to investigate the effects of supplementing laying hen diets with Tinospora crispa, Curcuma longa, and Pomacea canaliculata on egg production performance and quality. Eighteen 23-week-old Hy-Line Brown laying hens were divided into two groups, each with three replicates of three hens, for a t-test experiment. Group 1 received only commercial feed (control), while Group 2 received commercial feed supplemented with 0.4% Tinospora crispa, 2% Curcuma longa, and 15% Pomacea canaliculata. Each group was randomly assigned their respective diets for 4 weeks. The study found that supplementing with Tinospora crispa, Curcuma longa, and Pomacea canaliculata affected the color score of the egg yolk, with eggs from hens fed the supplemented diet having a significantly higher color score (9.56±0.05) compared to those fed commercial feed only (control), which had a color score of 9.22±0.09 (P<0.05). However, there was no significant effect of supplementing Tinospora crispa, Curcuma longa and Pomacea canaliculata in laying hen diets on production performance and other aspects of egg quality.
