Abstract
Riceberry broken rice is an agricultural by-product that is a rich source of antioxidants. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Riceberry broken rice as feed for laying hens on egg production, egg quality, and blood parameters in hens raised in an opened-house. Completely randomized design was used in this study. Ninety Lohman Brown hens (41 weeks old) were divided into 3 experimental groups. First group was defined as 40% of ground corn (C), while second group was 40% of white rice broken (BR). Third group was 40% of Riceberry broken rice (RBR). The result showed that the final body weight, daily feed intake, hen-day-egg production, egg weight, egg mass, feed conversion ratio, yolk index, albumin height, shell thickness and Haught unit of all treatments had not significant difference (p > 0.05). The RBR group showed lower yolk color than C group (p < 0.05), but had not significant difference from BR group. However, the RBR group had lower ratio of heterophilic white blood cells (H) to lymphocyte (L) than the other groups (p < 0.05). The RBR group had the lowest feed cost by 2.90 baht per kilogram of egg (p < 0.05). Conclusion, Riceberry broken rice can be used in laying hen diets as a substitute of ground corn and white rice broken rice without negatively affected the egg performance, egg quality and also reduced stress of on laying hens raised in opened-house. However, the riceberry broken rice could not increase the color of yolk.
