Abstract
Theaim of this research was to evaluatethe effect of the addition of bio-herbal as a feed additive on feed consumption,hen day production, feed egg ratioand mortality of laying hens. The materialsin this experiment used200 laying hens of the Hyline strainage 28to 36 weeks (reared for 60 days). The method used in this study was an invivoexperimental method using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with treatmentsconsisting of P0 = drinking water without bio-herbals (control treatment), T1 = control treatment + bio-herbal yellow, P2 = control treatment + bio-herbal green, and T3 = control treatment + bio-herbal combination yellow and green (alternately every one week). Data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and if there was a significant effect,then testedwith Duncan's Multiple Range Test. The observed variables were feed consumption, Hen Day Production(HDP), feed egg ratioand mortality. The results showed that the addition of bio-herbals hadno significant effect (P> 0.05) on the feed consumption, hen day production, feed egg ratioand mortality. It can be concluded bio-herbal green gives the best results in improving egg quality. Due to the bioactive compoundsof bio-herbal green, theyconsist of probiotic and phytobiotic.
