“…So, they stated that nutritionists need to take this under consideration prior to incorporation of DDGS into balanced diets for different poultry species. Klasing and Austic (2003) reported that poultry could tolerate high levels of Na in the diet. So, high levels of Na may result in a higher level of water consumption and consequently increase dirty eggs and the incidence of wet litter (Leeson et al, 1995;Klasing and Austic, 2003).…”

So, high levels of Na may result in a higher level of water consumption and consequently increase dirty eggs and the incidence of wet litter (Leeson et al, 1995;Klasing and Austic, 2003). Spiehs et al (2002) demonstrated substantial in plant variation of Na in DDGS and concluded that it would be difficult to characterize the Na content of a single plant by a few analyses.…”

Distiller's Dried Grains with Solubles (DDGS) as untraditional feedstuff has been available for feed industry for many years and became a nutritional and economical feed ingredient. According to recent studies, DDGS is usually used at low concentrations (10 or 15%) as a feed ingredient in laying hen diets without adverse effects on laying performance, feed utilization, nutrient digestibility, egg quality criteria and economics. Because DDGS became available in feed market in large amounts, the ability of using higher DDGS inclusion rate in poultry feed has become an interest for several researchers and poultry producers. Using such untraditional feedstuffs aims mainly to decrease the feed costs. Researchers assured that feeding higher levels of DDGS could have a significant effect on the cost of feed for poultry producers because of higher availability of DDGS and the current price fluctuations of feed ingredients. On the other hand, beneficial effects of DDGS on the environment have also been reported. These beneficial effects could be represented through mitigating harmful emissions and pollution from manure which provides production within clean atmosphere. Findings from different researches on the use of DDGS as feed ingredient for laying hens are illustrated in this review. Moreover, this study describes advanced information regarding the use of corn DDGS as untraditional feedstuff for laying hens involving its production process and nutritive value along with its useful effects on laying hens production traits, egg quality, apparent digestibility, economics and the impact on the surrounding environment in poultry house.

“…Deviation of the beak may be observed in vitamin D deficiency (rickets) but, in this condition, the beak is soft and pliable (7). Moreover, deformation of beak or head can result from problems with incubation conditions, as it is known that variations in temperature and humidity during the plateau stage of incubation may affect bone growth as well as thyroid metabolism, heart, and muscle development (10).…”

A farm of meat turkeys was affected by a condition, clinically characterized by unilateral inflammation of the orbital region and progressive crossing of the beak, observed in three successive flocks in 2010. While no toxic, genetic, technical, or diet causes could be found, pathologic and bacteriologic analyses were conducted to investigate the case. Pathologic analyses of the heads of affected birds showed blepharitis and exudative sinusitis as well as severe chronic osteomyelitis of all skull bones and mandibula. Staphylococcus aureus was consistently isolated from these lesions. It is supposed that the severe bacterial osteomyelitis induced deviation of some bones, thereby leading to deviation of the beak. Further investigations remain to be carried out to explain these successive outbreaks of staphylococcal osteomyelitis in skull bones.
