A serie of experiments was carried out with the objective to determine the nutritive value of nine poultry by-product meal and six feather meal for chickens. Four different methodologies were used to determine the values of N corrected apparent (AMEn) and true corrected (TMEn) metabolizable energy, where the traditional method was used with chicks and cocks and the Sibbald method was used with roosters and cecectomized cocks. The estimated AMEn and TMEn values of viscera meal ranged from 3,051 to […]
