Abstract
This research aims to evaluate and analyze the provision of additional feed in the form of selenium (Se) on the performance of egg production produced by layers. This research took the main object in the form of 60 weeks old laying hens with the Isa Brown strain. The research was carried out using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) method with Duncan’s advanced test. The results of this study explain that providing additional feed in the form of selenium (Se) in several doses has a very real influence on egg production performance (egg weight, feed intake, mortality, daily egg production, and FCR). The best dose of selenium was shown in treatment three (commercial feed + organic selenium dose of 150 grams/ton of inorganic selenium feed + vitamin E dose of 1000 grams/ton of feed). The presence of selenium and vitamin E given as additional feed for laying hens can increase egg weight, egg production, minimize mortality rates, and increase appetite.
