Abstract:The present study is under taken to determine the body weight gain of broilers, to determine carcass yield or dressing percentage of broilers, to determine feed conversion ratio of broilers, to enumerate the colonizing micro flora in the gut of broilers. A total of 80 day-old broiler chicks were divided into two main groups I and II with 40 chicks in each. Group I was supplemented with Probiotic (Max Yeast Culture gm/kg feed) containing feed and chicks of group II was supplemented with conventional feed. Group… Show more
“…This study has revealed that papaya leaf and kalo jeera seeds extract had no significant effect on the hematological parameters (Table 4). This findings, however, does not agree with Islam et al (2013a) who reported that bitter principles of medicinal plants possess a strong influence on hematological traits particularly Hb, depending on their nutritional status.…”
This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of papaya leaf (Carica papaya) and kalo jeera (Nigella sativa) seeds powdered supplementation in drinking water as a growth promoter in broiler chickens. A total of 20 Cobb-500 broiler chicks (day-old) were purchased from local hatchery (Nourish Poultry and Hatchery Ltd.) and after seven days of acclimatization chicks were randomly divided into two groups, A (n=10) and B (n=10). The group A was kept as a control and not treated. The group B was supplemented with papaya leaf and kalo jeera powder with feed and water. Weekly observations were recorded for live body weight gain up to 5 th weeks and hematological tests were performed at 35 th day's age of broiler to search for hematological changes between control (A) and treatment (B) groups. The initial body weight of groups A and B on 1 st were 41.00±0.56 gm and 41.50±0.35 gm, respectively and after 35 th day of experiment final body weight were 1470±57.35 gm and 1720±58.56 gm, respectively and economics of production were analyzed and found that net profit per broiler was Tk. 8.91 and Tk. 20.69, respectively. The treatment group B was recorded statistically significant (at 1% level) increased (17.00%) for live body weight than that of control group A. The hematological parameters total erythrocyte count (TEC), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and hemoglobin (Hb) estimation value of treatment group shows significant difference, while hemoglobin estimation does not show significant difference from control group. The results suggest that better growth performance could be achieved in broilers supplemented with papaya leaf and kalo jeera seeds.

“…Cost-benefit analysis of broiler production by using feed supplemented with tulsi leaf extract from 2-5 weeks of age Supplementation with tulsi extract was more profitable than control group (Table 3) but the difference was not significant (p>0.05). The study has revealed that supplemented with tulsi leaf extract had higher body weight gain, weekly gain in weight, feed consumption and feed efficiency (Islam et al, 2013). These results may be due to antimicrobial and anti-protozoal properties (Kale et al, 2003) of tulsi leaves, which help to reduce the microbial load of birds and improved the feed consumption and feed efficiency of the birds (Pushpagadan and Sobti, 1977).…”
The objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of tulsi leaf (Ocimum sanctum) extract supplementation in drinking water as a growth promoter in broiler chickens. A total of 40 Cobb-500 broiler chicks (day-old) were purchased from local hatchery (Nourish Poultry and Hatchery Ltd.). After seven days of acclimatization chicks were randomly divided into two groups, A (n=20) and B (n=20). The group A was kept as a control and not treated. The group B was supplemented with tulsi leaf extract with feed and water. Weekly observations were recorded for live body weight gain up to 5 th weeks and hematological tests were performed at 35 th day's age of broiler to search for hematological changes between control (A) and treatment (B) groups. The initial body weight of groups A and B on 1st day of this experiment were 41.00±1.78 gm and 41.50±2.35 gm, respectively and after 35 th day of experiment final body weight were 1640± 74.83 gm and 1920± 33.91 gm, respectively and economics of production were analyzed and found that net profit per broiler was Tk. 21.46 and Tk. 32.29, respectively. The treatment group B was recorded statistically significant (at 1% level) increased (16.97%) for live body weight than that of control group A. The hematological parameters total erythrocyte count (TEC), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), packed cell volume (PCV) and hemoglobin (Hb) estimation value of treatment group shows significant difference, while hemoglobin (Hb) estimation does not show significant difference from control group. The results suggest that better growth performance could be achieved in broilers supplemented with tulsi leaf extract.
