dc.description.abstract | The present study was carried out to determine whether dietary boric acid would affect egg production parameters and egg shell quality of Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica). In the study, 135 female Japanese quails at 8 weeks of age were used. The quails were divided into 3 groups randomly, each treatment group contained 3 subgroup containing 15 birds each. Commercial maize-barley based standard layer diets were formulated as basal diets for the control treatment, basal diets were supplemented with 200 and 400 ppm boric acid. The experiment lasted 8 weeks. The results obtained in this experiment showed that boric acid supplementation to the diet significantly affected egg weight, egg shell thickness and feed conversion efficiency, but there was no significant difference between the control and the boric acid supplemented groups in feed intake, egg production, egg shell weight, egg shape index. | en_US |
