In this experiment, the effects of digestible lysine levels on performance, nitrogen balance and fat digestibility in Lohmann LSL hens 16 to 25 weeks of age were evaluated. Four levels of digestible lysine (0.6, 0.7, 0.8 and 0.9% in ration) were assessed by utilizing 160 16-year-old laying hens 16 to 25 weeks of age. The diets were isonutritive with 17% CP and 2800 (pre laying) and 2750 (pre peak) kcal/kg. A completely randomized design was used with four lysine levels […]
