An experiment was conducted to study the effects of L-Glutamic acid (L-Glu) and vitamin D3 on the performance of one-day-old male Hubbard broiler chicks, reared in heated batteries, for a 14 days period. The chicks were fed purified diets containing all essential L-amino acids, minerals, and vitamins (except Vitamin D3) and were supplemented with three levels of L-Glu (5, 10 and 15%) and with four levels of vitamin D3 (0; 5,000; 10,000 and 15,000 IU). The experimental design was a […]
