Abstract
The effect of supplementation of turmeric, ginger and their combination in the diets on performance and egg quality in laying Japanese quails was investigated. A total of 300 18-weeks old female quails were randomly allocated to 4 dietary treatments, 3 replicates, and 25 birds per replicate. Dietary treatments were basal diet (control) and basal diet containing 1.5 g/kg of turmeric (C), ginger (G) or their combination (CG). The results showed that diet supplemented with C, G and CG significantly decreased feed intake (P<0.05). However, feed efficiency, hen-day production, egg weight and egg mass were not significantly different between groups (P>0.05). Egg quality: shape index, yolk index, albumin index, albumin height, albumin weight, shell weight, yolk weight, albumin ratio, yolk ratio, eggshell ratio, Haugh unit, color (L*, a* and b*) was not significantly different between groups (P>0.05). On the basis of the results of the study, it is concluded that supplementation of turmeric, ginger and their combination decrease feed intake but without affecting feed efficiency, egg production, egg weight, egg mass and egg quality.
