Aging leads to decreased fertility in roosters, which is likely due to increased oxidative stress. This study evaluated the antioxidant effects of gallic acid (GA) supplementation on sperm quality and fertility of aged roosters. This study evaluated whether gallic acid (GA) supplementation can mitigate age-related fertility decline. Roosters were randomly assigned to: control, 100 mg/kg GA, or 200 mg/kg GA. Semen parameters, sperm kinetics, hormone levels, fertility rate, and hatchability were assessed. GA increased semen concentration, membrane integrity and viability while decreasing defects versus control (P<0.01). Testosterone was higher in GA groups (P<0.01) without affecting gonadotropins. Furthermore, 200 mg/kg GA optimized motility, velocity, linearity, and beat cross frequency versus control and 100 mg/kg GA (P<0.01). Fertility and hatchability were higher in both GA groups. In conclusion, GA supplementation in aged roosters improves sperm quality, antioxidant status, testosterone, and fertility outcomes, likely by mitigating oxidative stress. The 200 mg/kg dose elicited optimal effects on motion parameters.
