Abstract EN
The aim of this study was to investigate the response of broilers fed on test diets containing non-antibiotic growth promoters; Probiotic (BioPlus 2B), Prebiotic (TechnoMos), Synbiotic, and medicinal herbs (Mixture of Origanum majorana, Foeniculum vulgare, and Carum carvi in ratio 1:1:1), each within two dietary protein levels (normal and low), on these broiler performance.
The study was carried out at the Poultry Research Center, Faculty of Agriculture; Alexandria University, Egypt.
The experimental period lasted for 42 days.
A total number of 500 days from Cobb broiler chicks, with similar average live body weight, were randomly distributed into 10 treatments.
Each treatment comprised of 5 replicates of 10 chicks each.
Ten experimental diets were formulated to be approximately isocaloric and cover all nutrients required for broiler throughout two stages of growth periods, starter diets (1 - 21) and finisher diets (22 - 42) days of age.
Ten experimental diets were consisting of two levels of crude protein (recommended or low (85% of recommended)) and five feed-additive programmes (control, probiotic, prebiotic, synbiotic and medicinal plants).
In general, feeding broiler lower crude protein levels (-10% of NRC) resulted in poorer growth performance, which was partially compensated with the non-antibiotic additives.
Among the additives, synbiotic had positively significant effects on FCR, BW.
