The objective of this study was to determine the best sodium nutritional levels for Italian quails in the phase from 1 to 49 days of age. Three hundred and eight-four quails at one day of age were distributed in a completely randomized experimental design with six diets with 0.07; 0.12; 0.17; 0.22; 0.27 and 0.32% sodium, evaluated with eight replicates with eight birds per experimental unit. Levels of sodium, which were better at 0.257%, 0.216%, 0.207% and 0.191%, had a […]
