Leg disorders in broiler chickens : prevalence, risk factors and prevention [PDF]
Broiler (meat) chickens have been subjected to intense genetic selection. In the past 50 years, broiler growth rates have increased by over 300% (from 25 g per day to 100 g per day).

Effect of Mycoplasma Synoviae on Broiler Performance
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°

Performance of Eimeria-challenged male broilers fed 2 ionophore–nicarbazin combinations
Summary: This study assesses the efficacy of 2 different potentiated ionophores (monensin and narasin) and a chemical (nicarbazin, a shuttle) in program with narasin to control coccidiosis in challenged male broilers through the evaluation of performance

Broiler performance with additional Synbiotic
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 ...

The Effects of Stocking Density on Broiler Performance
The performance traits of broilers reared in different stocking density groups were investigated. Data were obtained from 910 broilers housed in litter-type pens at densities of 12.5 (1), 15 (2), 17.5 (3) and 20 (4) broilers/m2. Each pen had 14 m2 floor space.

Influence of Salinomycin on the Performance of Broiler Chicks
Two experiments were conducted to determine the influence of graded levels of salinomycin on the performance of broiler chicks. Cobb feather-sexed chicks were fed experimental diets from 1 to 21 days of age. A significant depression in body weight and feed consumption was obtained when the feed contained 77 ppm of salinomycin.

Significance of chick quality score in broiler production
The quality of day old chicks is crucial for profitable broiler production, but a difficult trait to define. In research, both qualitative and quantitative measures are used with variable predictive value for subsequent performance. In hatchery practice,
