Effect of Feeding Probiotic and Antibiotic on Productive Performance of Nandanam Brioler – 3
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Innovations and Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
A biological trial of eight weeks duration was conducted to assess the effects of feeding probiotic (Lactobacillus and Sacchromyces species and antibiotic (Co- Trimazine) on productive performance of Nandanam3 colour broiler chicken. Day old Nandanam 3 broiler chicks (n = 72) were distributed into 3 groups of 24 chicks each with two replicates. Three dietary treatments were T1 (basal diet), T2 (basal diet with probiotics) T3 (basal diet with antibiotic) at a level of 500gm per ton of feed. The average body weight (g) at 8th week was 934.22 ± 43.95, 1013.48 ± 32.16 and 1174.67 ± 50.22 in T1, T2 and T3 respectively. The feed efficiency was 2.45 ± 0.15, 2.35 ± 0.07 and 2.21 ± 0.14 in T1, T2 and T3 respectively. Slaughter studies was conducted at the end of 8th week and the per cent eviscerated, giblet and ready-to-cook weight were 58.92 ± 2.73, 60.52 ± 3.71, 64.11 ± 2.96; 5.80 ± 0.19, 5.38 ± 0.20, 5.04 ± 0.20 and 64.72 ± 2.75, 65.89 ± 3.88, 69.16 ± 3.09 respectively for T1, T2 and T3 groups. The results indicated that the dietary supplementation of antibiotic at the level of 500 gm per ton feed significantly (P0.01) higher body weight and livability was significantly (P0.01) higher in control than probiotic and antibiotic groups. The slaughter studies of the above result indicated percent giblet was significantly (P0.05) higher in control than probiotic and antibiotic groups.
