The aim of this study was to evaluate performance and egg quality of Japanese quails (Coturnix japonica) fed rations with low-tannin sorghum replacing corn. Two hundred and ten 65-d female Japanese quails were distributed in a complete random design with five experimental rations (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% replacement of corn by sorghum) and six replicates with seven birds. There was no significant effect of sorghum levels in the diets on any of the production characteristics in this experiment, […]

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of inclusion of coconut meal (CM) in diets for laying hens. Two hundred and forty laying hens at 43 weeks of age were assigned to a randomized block design, with five treatments and eight replicates of six birds per treatment. The treatments consisted of five isoprotein (16.5% CP) and isocaloric (2,800 kcal ME/kg) diets containing 0%, 5%; 10%; 15% and 20% CM. The experiment was carried out for 112 days and the […]
