Abstract
This study examined the applicability of gin waste for litter use in broiler production. 630 day-old Ross 308 hybrid birds were used in three treatment groups with three replications kept on commonly used wood shavings (L1), on gin waste (L2) and on a combination of 50% wood shavings and 50% gin waste (L3). During the 42-day experiment, changes in live weight, feed intake, feed conversion rate, vitality, carcass characteristics (weight, yield, gizzard, liver and heart weight), moisture content and enumeration of Eschericia coli in the bedding materials were examined. The study revealed that the effect of litter materials was significant on live weight and carcass weight (P
