Abstract | ||
The experiment was conducted at the poultry farm , Department of Animal production , College of Agriculture / University of Tikrit the period between 8 / 4 / 2014 and 12 / 5 / 2014 . The study was aimed at investigating the effect of using various levels of Dried Distillers Grains and supplementing with the Iraqi probiotic together with performing a fermentation treatment of a ratio one water/one diet for 24 hours at 35° c . 1125 broiler chicks ( Ross 308) at one day age were randomly assigned to 15 treatments . Each treatments includes three replicates and each replicates consists of 25 chicks ( 75 chicks for each treatment ) .The treatments used were as follows: Treatment 1 : The control , no supplement ( the negative control ) .Treatment 2 : The control + Iraqi probiotic ( the first positive control ) .Treatment 3 : The control + Iraqi probiotic + Fermentation ( the second positive control ) . Treatment 4 : DDG 5 % . Treatment 5 : DDG 5 % + Iraqi probiotic . Treatment 6 : DDG 5 % + Iraqi probiotic + Fermentation . Treatment 7 : DDG 10 % . Treatment 8 : DDG 10 % + Iraqi probiotic .Treatment 9 : DDG 10 % + Iraqi prbiotic + Fermentation . Treatment 10 : DDG 15 % . Treatment 11 : DDG 15 % + Iraqi probiotic . Treatment 12 : DDG 15 % + Iraqi probiotic + Fermentation . Treatment 13 : DDG 20 % . Treatment 14 : DDG 20 % + Iraqi probiotic . Treatment 15 : DDG 20 % + Iraqi probiotic + Fermentation . The chicks were feed on diets having similar amounts of energy and crude protein percentages according to ( Ross 308 rearing Guide ) . The diet were supplemented in a ground form where as the water was available freely at all times . the lighting and management schedules were arranged according the standard procedures presented in the guide .The broiler rearing period was 35 days . The results obtained a non significant differences between T7 and both T1 and T2 . Besides a non significant differences between T11 and the first control regarding , BW, ADG , FI , FCE , Fermentation process have showed a significant increase ( p < 0.05 ) of Lactic Acid Bacterial Count ,where as the E-Coli Bacterial count was found to be significant with the exception of some of those treatments containing DDG when compared with the control treatment . Treatment 15 recorded significantly ( p < 0.05 ) a higher ville height to crypt depth percentage over all other treatments excluding treatments 4,5,6,7 and 14 . Treatment 6 showed the higher follicle diameter of fabricia gland when compared with all other treatments . | ||
