“…On the other hand, found that when anise was added to quail diets, feed intake increased. Moreover, there were no significant (p > 0.100) changes in mortality between the experimental groups, which is in agreement with Cetingul et al (2009), who examined the dietary use of oregano in laying quails. 95.01 b ± 3.27 31.3 ± 1.6 0.0 ± 0.0 OLIVE20 94.14 b ± 2.79 33.6 ± 1.4 3.7 ± 6.4 P value 0.054 0.319 0.668 1 -Groups: CONTR = control; OREGA10 = 10 g oregano/kg; OREGA20 = 20 g oregano/kg; ANISE10 = 10 g anise/kg; ANISE20 = 20 g anise/kg; OLIVE10 = 10 g olive leaves/kg; OLIVE20 = 20 g olive leaves/kg.…”

“…As indicated in Table 3, there were no differences (p > 0.100) in daily feed intake between the dietary treatments over the experimental period. According to other researchers (Cetingul et al, 2007(Cetingul et al, , 2009Handl et al, 2008), oregano did not affect the daily feed intake in quails. On the other hand, found that when anise was added to quail diets, feed intake increased.…”

“…The benefits of dietary olive leaves are possibly due to the presence of polyphenols and particularly oleuropein, the main active component in this material (Malik & Brandford, 2008). In previous studies relative to the supplementation of quail feeds with oregano only, no effect on egg production was found (Cetingul et al, 2007(Cetingul et al, , 2009, whereas El-Deeb et al (2007) reported that dietary anise decreased quail egg production.…”

Aim of the present study was the comparative evaluation of the effect of ground oregano, anise and olive leaves as feed additives on performance and some egg quality characteristics of laying Japanese quails. A total of 189 Coturnix japonica quails (126 females and 63 males), 149 days old, were randomly allocated into seven equal groups with three subgroups of 9 birds each (6 females and 3 males). A commercial laying diet was fed to the control group. The remaining six groups were fed the same diet supplemented with oregano at 10 g/kg or 20 g/kg, anise at 10 g/kg or 20 g/kg and olive leaves at 10 g/kg or at 20 g/kg. The birds were offered feed and water ad libitum for a period of 29 days, while being kept under commercial conditions. During the experiment, egg production, feed intake and mortality were recorded daily. At the end of the feeding period egg weight, egg yolk, albumen and eggshell weight percentages, egg yolk color (using the L*a*b* color space) and blood serum triglycerides were determined. The diets supplemented with olive leaves (10 g/kg or 20 g/kg) resulted in a tendency (p = 0.054) for higher egg production percentage. Also, the color parameter a* was significantly (p = 0.001) higher in the eggs of quails that consumed oregano (10g/kg or 20 g/kg) or olive leaves (10g/kg or 20 g/kg)

“…Also, the addition of AeBML in the diet of laying quails improved yolk pigmentation, indicative of high bioavailability of pigmenting agents in the leaf of bush marigold. The results supported the reports by earlier researchers (Al-Kirshi et al, 2010;Nhan et al, 1997;Cetingul et al, 2008) that supplementation with mulberry, peppermint, Trichantera gigantean and Tephrosia bracteolate leaf meal, respectively increased the yolk pigmentation of laying birds. This however contradicts the report by Odunsi (2003) that supplementation with Lablab purpureus leaf meal had no significant effect on the internal egg quality of birds.…”

Problem statement:The effects of inclusion of aqueous extract of Bush marigold (Aspilia africana) leaf in quail diet were investigated. One hundred and fifty Japanese quail chicks were used in the study. Approach: In the 14-weeks feeding experiment, the birds were assigned to five treatments of; 0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5 and 10% inclusion of aqueous extract of Bush marigold leaf. Each treatment had 3 replicates of 10 birds per replicate in a randomized complete block design. Results: The results indicated that feeding Aqueous extract of Bush Marigold Leaf (AeBML) did not affect (p>0.05) daily weight gain, feed conversion ratio and carcass yield. Mortality and % cracked eggs were reduced (p<0.01). Feed intake and dressed weight of growing quails were significantly (p>0.05) affected by dietary supplementations with AeBML. Egg number and hen day production increased (p<0.001) as level of AeBML increased, though egg weight decreased (p<0.01). Feeding AeBML improved (p<0.001) albumen weight, shell thickness and yolk colour when compared to the control. Conclusion: The study concluded that dietary inclusion of up to 5% aqueous extract of bush marigold leaf in the diets of growing and laying quails could enhance growth performance and egg production traits.

“…However, hatching results could have been affected from the numerical differences in all mortalities and culls of hatch among the groups. In agreement with these findings, Cetingul et al (8) found that oregano (Oregano Onites) supplemented in diet increased fertility rate in laying quails, but not hatchability results or embryonic mortalities.…”

Summary:This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of cinnamon (CO), rosemary (RO) and a mixture (MO) of these plants oil on egg production, feed intake, feed conversion rate, external and internal egg quality, blood serum mineral contents and hatchability traits in different sex ratios of [1/3 and 1/5, (♂/♀)] in laying quails. A total of 192 quail were distributed into special cages (12 quails/per cage) including three experimental diets and control. The experiment was continued two months. At the end of the study, 12 birds from each group were slaughtered in order to collect blood samples. The levels of Cu, Co, Cr, Zn, Fe, K, Na and Mg in serum were determined. The highest egg weight was found in RO group, while it was lowest in MO group (P<0.05). Addition of diatery CO improved hen-day egg production as well as feed conversion rate (P<0.05). Feed intake was found to be similar among the groups (P>0.05). While egg shell rate increased in CO group (P<0.05), the ratios of egg yolk, egg albumen and shape index did not differ among the treatments (P>0.05). Although the effect of diets implemented in the experimental groups on the fertility was found to be significant (P<0.05) this effect on the hatchability traits in both sex ratios was not significant (P>0.05). While the serum K level was significantly higher in CO group (P<0.05) the level of Zn in group CO (P=0.078) and the level of Co in group RO were found slightly higher (P=0.086). The other findings of mineral contents were similar among the groups (P>0.05). Consequence of this study showed that CO had a positive effects on egg production and egg shell quality. Mixture of CO and RO had negative effects on egg weight and cumulative egg weight.Key words: Cinnamon and rosemary oils, hatchability, performance, quail, serum mineral.Tarçın ve biberiye yağlarının yumurtacı bıldırcınlarda (Coturnix coturnix Japonica) yumurta üretimi, kabuk kalitesi, kuluçka özellikleri ve serum mineral düzeyleri üzerine etkileri Özet: Bu araştırma, tarçın (CO), biberiye (RO) ve bu bitkisel yağların karışımının (MO) yumurtacı bıldırcınlarda yumurta üretimi, yem tüketimi, yemden yararlanma oranı, iç ve dış yumurta kalite özellikleri, serum mineral düzeyleri ve farklı cinsiyet oranlarında [1/3 and 1/5, (♂/♀)] kuluçka özelliklerini tespit etmek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Toplam 192 adet bıldırcın kontrol ve üç deneme grubunu içeren özel kafeslere yerleştirilmiştir (12 bıldırcın/kafes). Araştırma iki ay sürmüştür. Araştırmanın sonunda her gruptan 12 adet bıldırcın kesilerek kanları alınmıştır. Serum örneklerinde Cu, Co, Cr, Zn, Fe, K, Na ve Mg düzeyleri tespit edilmiştir. En yüksek yumurta ağırlığı RO grubunda tespit edilirken, en düşük yumurta ağırlığı MO grubunda bulunmuştur (P<0.05). Diyete CO ilavesi bıldırcın-gün yumurta üretimini ve yemden yararlanmayı iyileştirmiştir (P<0.05). Yem tüketimi gruplar arasında benzer bulunmuştur (P>0.05). Yumurta kabuk oranı CO grubunda artarken (P<0.05), yumurta sarı ve ak oranları ile şekil indeklerinde deneme grupları arasında farklılık tespit e...
