Abstract
The present
study was carried out for six weeks on 135 day old quail chicks
to study the effect of supplementation of probiotic and enzymes
on growth performance. The dietary treatments comprised of T1 –
control i.e. corn – soya based diet as control, whereas T2 and
T3 supplemented with probiotic and multienzyme respectively. The
body weight gain and feed conversion efficiency was
significantly (P<0.01) better in probiotic and enzyme fed
groups. Similarly dressing percentage was also significantly
(P<0.01) better in these groups as compared to control. It is
concluded that probiotic and enzyme can be successfully
incorporated in diet of Japanese quail as a growth promoter.
