Amino acid supplementation of hydrolyzed feather meal diets for finisher pigs1,2

Abstract: The objective of this study was to determine the possibility of replacing soybean meal (SBM) in finisher pig diets completely with hydrolyzed feather meal (FM). Forty-five gilts and 45 castrated males (57.8+/-0.8 kg of BW; 3 gilts or 3 castrated males/pen) were randomly assigned to 5 finisher-1 diets with 6 pens per diet. At an average pen BW of 81.0+/-1.4 kg, pigs were offered finisher-2 diets. Corn-SBM, finisher-1 and finisher-2 positive control (PC) diets were formulated to contain 6.1 and 4.7 g of apparent… Show more

“…Our second objective was to analyze feathers. Feather meal is an attractive source of cheap amino acids for food producing animal diets (Bertsch & And Coello, 2005;Divakala et al, 2009). This ingredient is currently incorporated into diet on as-fed in chicken, rainbow trout, shrimp and salmon (Bureau et al, 2000;Bransden et al, 2001;Cheng et al, 2002).…”

“…17 These diets include feathers in their formulation as a low cost source of aminoacids. 18 Consequently, to safeguard food safety from farm to table, antimicrobials such as tetracyclines need to be studied regarding their behavior in feathers as it relates to their concentration levels in edible tissues. However, pursuing this goal necessarily implies implementing and validating analytical methods.…”
