Influence of broiler strain cross and dietary protein on the performance of broilers
Poultry Science, 1998 The purpose of this experiment was to quantify the responses of two broiler strain crosses to different dietary protein levels on performance and carcass yields. Day-old broiler chicks from a high-yield strain cross (Ross x Ross 208) and a fast-growing strain cross (Peterson x Arbor Acres) were placed in floor pens on fresh pine shavings.

The Effect of Temperature and Density on Broiler Performance
Poultry Science, 1968 Abstract STUDIES by Barrott and Pringle (1949, 1950), Ota and Garver (1954), Prince et al. (1960) and Howes et al. (1962) indicated that the optimum environmental temperature for growing broilers decreased to approximately 12.8° to 18.3° at 4 to 5 weeks of age.

The Effect of Brooding Temperature on Broiler Performance
Poultry Science, 1996 In response to the energy crisis of the 1970s, this laboratory recommended that initial brooding temperatures for broilers be reduced to 29.4 C from 32.2 or 35 C. Because environmental temperature has been implicated in the ascites syndrome, this work was conducted to see whether the recommended brooding temperature of 29.4 C the 1st wk, 26.7 C the 2nd

Performance of broilers on furazolidone additive
Nigerian Journal of Animal Production, 2021 One hundred and twenty Anak broiler chicks of both sexes were fed furazolidone (additive) in feed to study their growth/weight gain response. The birds were grouped into four, A, B, C, and D of 30 chicks each Treatments B, C and D were administered with furazolidone in feed at the following dosage rates: 0.008%, 0.004% 0.002% respectively.

Broiler performance with additional Synbiotic
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020 Abstract There are many methods to improve the performance and productivity of the broiler. Synbiotic is a product containing probiotics and prebiotics in one media. Synbiotic increase the digestibility of feed that contains a lot of crude fiber, eliminate the smell of ammonia in feces, increase the immune system, help increase growth ...

Environmental Enrichment/Improvement: Effect on Performance of Commercial Broiler Strains [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Poultry ScienceThis work reviews the effect of environmental enrichments (perches, platforms, stocking density, outdoor access, bale, and dust bathing substrates) on the performance of fast and slow-growing commercial broiler strains.

Effect of Mycoplasma Synoviae on Broiler Performance
Poultry Science, 1973 Abstract Two trials were conducted to determine the effect of Mycoplasma synoviae (Ms.) on broiler performance. A total of 1,200 males and 1,200 females was used in each trial. At 28 days of age, 75 birds per pen were placed, sexes separate, in 32 pens in a house equally divided by a solid partition. The temperature in the house was maintained at 21°
