The influence used of calcium and acidifier to performance, internal egg quality, and metabolizable energy of laying hens: In-vivo trial

Abstract

The combination between CaCO3 and Averrhoa bilimbi L. as a novelty later namely calcidifier conducted to determined possible effect on the growth performance, internal egg quality, and energy of metabolism in laying hens. Eighty-lying hens of Isa Brown strain randomly allocated into five dietary treatments and four replicates with two lying hens each cages. The treatments were formulated as follows: To control, basal diet + calcidifier 0.1% (T1), 0.2% calcidifier (T2), basal feed + 0.3% calcidifier (T3), basal feed + calcidifier 0.3% (T4). The statistical analysis were performed according one-way-anova using SAS academic online Ed. It was shown that using those combination concomitantly no significance effect on overall parameters. In summary, the used of calcidifier did not impacted well on lying hens, in line, didn’t help improve on the lying hens.
