| Abstract | ||
| The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of three phenotypic groups from Japanese quail different with colored feathers (White, Black and Brown) when fed four grower diets differed with oil source (control, oil sunflower, vegetable fat and grease animal) equal in energy content and protein. 360 chicks (120/ phenotypic group) day-old an-suxed were rared and distributed randomly into four feed treatment by 3 replicate per treatment at rate of 10 birds per replicate, so we have 12 replicates per phenotypic group. provided feed and water for the birds ad libitum during the study period reduce the age of 42 days. statistical analysis have shown that phenotypic group had significant effect (p≤ 0.0001) on traits : live body weight, weight gain, feed conversion ratio, relative growth, production index and dressing percentage for group with brown feather. As for the oil source , birds which fed on oil sunflower showed significant effect (p≤ 0.0001) on traits : live body weight, weight gain, feed conversion ratio, relative growth, production index and dressing percentage . There he is a significant effect for interaction on quail performance . | ||
