Title: Replacement of groundnut cake by dried poultry manure in the diets of laying hens
Author: Ogunmodede, B. K.
Afolabi, S. O.
Appeared in: British poultry science
Paging: Volume 19 (1978) nr. 2 pages 143-147
Year: 1978-03
Contents: 1. The effect on food consumption by pullets when dried poultry manure (DPM) replaced part of dietary groundnut cake depended on the strain of the birds: in two of the three hybrids food consumption was not affected when up to 100 g DPM/kg was fed. 2. Increases in food consumption were accompanied by increases in egg production. 3. The food required per dozen eggs was improved by up to 100 g dietary DPM/kg and variation in the sizes of eggs laid depended on the hybrid. 4. Concentrations of DPM up to 100 g/kg did not affect the water-soluble nitrogen content of the egg but the crude albumen nitrogen content was depressed at concentrations of 80 g/kg or above. 5. Feeding DPM to laying pullets depressed body weight.
