Collections
Abstract
Effect of fenugreek, antibiotics, ginger and ignatia on body weight,
body weight gain, feed consumption and FCR of Japanese quails was
evaluated in this study. Fifty Japanese quails were randomly allotted
to five treatments identified as T0, T1, T2, T3 and T4. Birds on T0
served as control and T1, T2, T3 and T4 groups were treated with
fenugreek, antibiotics, ginger and ignatia respectively. Fenugreek
and ginger was in powder form while others were in liquid form.
Average body weight in different treatments were different from the
control for body weight in 1% level of significance. Feed consumption,
body weight gain and feed conversion ratio in different treatments
were different from the control for body weight in 5% level of
significance. The birds fed the liquid form of ignatia showed better
body weight, body weight gain, feed consumption and feed conversion
ratio and are comparatively significant than those feed with
fenugreek, antibiotics and ginger with those of control group.
