Effect of Supplementation Herbs in Feed on Production Performance and Egg Quality of Japanese Quail
Main Article Content
Abstract
The experiment was conducted to study the effects of herbs in Japanese quail diet on egg production performance and quality. Thirty-eight days old of 60 Japanese quail were raised in completely randomized design (CRD) comprising 4 groups with 3 replications of 5 birds each. Dietary treatment 1 was non-supplemented with any herb (control). Dietary treatment 2-4 were supplemented with 6% of Pandanus amaryllifolius Roxb., 2% of Moringa oleifera Lam, and 2% of Curcuma longa Linn. Feed intake and egg production performance were recorded for last 4 weeks. The results showed that feed intake of the birds received diet with 2% of Curcuma longa Linn. decreases significantly (P<0.05). Feed dozen egg of the bird received diet with 2% of Moringa oleifera Lam. shows decrease significantly (P<0.05). Yolk color of the birds received feed with 6% of Pandanus amaryllifolius Roxb. increase significantly (P<0.05).
