The cost of conventional feed ingredients is always on the increase from year to year leading to an increase in the cost of animal products, especially animal protein. The competition between man and livestock for some of these feed ingredients coupled with high cost has necessitated the search for alternative, non-conventional feed ingredients that would suitably replace the conventional ones used in formulating poultry diets.The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of toasted, fermented, and raw sicklepod seed meal (SSM) based diets on the growth performance of broiler chickens. The seeds of sicklepod were harvested, threshed, cleaned, and processed. A total of 240-day-old (Cobb 500) broiler chickens were purchased and randomly distributed to four treatments, 60 birds each, replicated thrice, 20 birds per replicate in a completely randomized design. The results on the performance of broilers fed SSM-based diets at starter phase (2 – 4) weeks show no significant (P>0.05) difference for daily feed intake (DFI), daily weight gain (DWG), and feed conversion ratio (FCR). The results at finisher phase (5 – 8) weeks) show a highly significant (P<0.01) difference for DFI, DWG, and FCR. The results on the performance at overall phase 2 – 8 weeks shows a highly significant (P<0.01 difference for DWG while DFI and FCR are significantly (P<0.05)different but mortality was not significant at all the phases. The results indicated that there was high feed utilization and an increase in daily weight gain of the broilers fed the processed SSM but birds fed diets containing fermented SSM recorded the best. Therefore, it is concluded that livestock farmers should use 10.0 % fermented SSM to feed broiler chickens as a protein ingredient, while the absence of mortality observed among the birds, proves safety in feeding broilers with SSM. Further research should be carried out on other monogastric animals using SSM.

Cow milk is generally the primary source of milk consumption, especially in developing countries. However, its allergenic potentials coupled with the higher digestibility and therapeutic potentials of small ruminant milk make the milk of ewe and doe a suitable alternative to consider. Although several researches have been carried out to assess compositions of milk of animals, assessments across their proximate alongside their cow milk counterpart have not been extensively reported. This study was carried out to assess the proximate compositionof raw milk from cow, ewe and doe.Bulk sample of fresh milk from cow ewe and goat were obtained once and analysed in four(4) replicate per species. Protein, fat, lactose and solids non fat of cow and ewe milk were analysed using the automated lactoscan milk analyser. Doe milk parameters as well as total solids and ash content of all samples were analysed according to the standard methods of the A.O.A.C.Data generated were subjected to One-way Analysis of Variance in a Completely Randomized Design. Significant differencesbetween treatment means were separated using Duncan Multiple range test. Results obtainedindicated that ewe milk had the highest (p<0.05) percentage of milk protein (4.51%), fat (6.65%) and totalsolids (16.15%). Solids non-fat (SNF) contentwasnot(p>0.05) influenced by animal species. The study indicates higher nutritional profile of ewe milk over cow and doe milk in terms of milk protein and fat. Le lait de vache est généralement la principale source de consommation de lait, en particulier dans les pays en développement.

The unavailability and low quality of forage materials during the dry season faced by ruminant animals directly affects their growth and reproductive performance. Hence, an experiment was conducted with 16 West African dwarf bucks of age between 5 and 9 months using graded levels of boiled wild cocoyam (Caladium bicolor) and supplement with Guinea grass as based diet to check their performance. The inclusion levels of boiled Caladium bicolor meal (BCBM) were A (0% BCBM)), B (10% BCBM), C (20% BCBM) and D (30% BCBM), in a completely randomized design (CRD). The bucks were also randomly divided into four treatment groups. Each treatment group has four goats with a goat being a replicate in their respective group. Feed consumed, total and daily weight gain were obtained while feed conversion ratios were computed for each treatment group. The result showed significant differences (P>0.05) in their total and daily weight gain between treatment groups. Treatment A in their total weight gain of 1.30kg differed significantly from B (1.94), C (2.37) and D (2.62), but the value of 2.37kg obtained for treatment C was similar to value of treatment D (2.62) statistically (P>0.05). The significant differences (P>0.05) in their daily feed intake, followed the same pattern as in their total weight gain. Feed conversion ratio values showed that treatment B, C, and D which contain 10% BCBM, 20% 30% BCBM respectively were statistically similar (P>0.05), but these three treatments (B, C and D) differed significantly (P>0.05) from treatment A (control). Their feed economics Showed no significant difference (P<0.05) among the treatment groups in all the parameters (cost of feed consumed (N), total weight gain, cost/weight gain (N/kg), price/kg meat (N) and total revenue (N)), but cost per kg weight gain was least (N 47.73) for diet C (20% BCB) followed by D (N48.95) and C (N52.42) and highest in the control diet A (N125.54). Since 30% boiled C. bicolor inclusion level promoted best growth rate at the lowest cost per kg feed consumed, it is therefore recommended as an ingredient for goat diet. L'indisponibilité et la faible qualité des matériaux de fourrage au cours de la saison sèche confrontée aux animaux des ruminants affectent directement leurs performances de croissance et de reproduction. Par conséquent, une expérience a été menée avec 16 dollars nains d'Afrique de l'Ouest entre 5 et 9 mois avec des niveaux classés du taro sauvage bouilli (bicolor caladium) et compléter avec l'herbe de guinée comme alimentation basée sur la vérification de leur performance. Les niveaux d'inclusion de la farine de bicolore de caladium bouilli (FBCB) ont été un (0% FBCB)), B (FBCB de 10%), C (20% FBCB) et D (30% FBCB), dans une conception complètement randomisée (CCR).

Semen quality and quantity can adversely be affected by nutrition. The use of biomolecules containing antioxidants and nutrients essential for growth and reproduction in rabbits have been established. However, information on the effect of carrot seed meal (CSM) on semen qualitative and quantitative characteristics of rabbit bucks is scanty and thus investigated. A 10-week investigation was conducted in order to assess the effects of orally administered CSM on reproductive performance and semen characteristics of rabbit bucks. A total of 24 mixed breed, adult rabbit bucks were randomly allotted to four treatments with six replicates each (T1-control, T2-0.2mg CSM/kg body weight, T3-0.4mg CSM/kg body weight and T4- 0.6mg CSM/kg body weight) in a completely randomised design. On weeks 8, 9 and 10, semen samples were collected from replicate bucks for semen quality assessment using standard procedures. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and ANOVA at á 0.05. Semen colour and mass activity were not influenced by CSM levels. Sperm cell livability was higher in bucks on T3 (100.00±0.00 %), T4 (100.00±0.00%) 'and T2 (98.67±2.31%) compared to T1 (94.67±1.53%). Spermatozoa motility observed at weeks 9 and 10 was significantly (P<0.05) lower in bucks in the control group (80.33±1.53% and 68.00±10.00% respectively compared to those on CSM administration. Epididymal weight and epididymal sperm reserves were significantly (P<0.05) higher in bucks on T2, T3 and T4 than bucks on the control (T1). The average paired weights ( ) and sperm reserves (9.43±2.21×108 ) of epididymis of bucks administered 0.40mg CSM were the highest among the treatments. Testicular weight, sperm reserves per gram testis, daily sperm production and sperm production efficiency were not significantly (P>0.05) affected by varying levels of CSM. Reaction time observed in control bucks (11.50±3.55 seconds) was significantly higher compared to those on CSM administration. However, libido score was apparently lower in control bucks (8.00±1.83) compared to bucks administered CSM. Highest conception rate of 75% was obtained in rabbit does mated with T3 (75.00±6.25%) compared to other treatments. A 0.40mg carrot seed meal administered to rabbit bucks enhanced spermatozoa motility, livability, libido score and fertility. La qualité et la quantité de sperme peuvent être affectées négativement par la nutrition. L'utilisation de biomolécules contenant des antioxydants et des nutriments essentiels à la croissance et à la reproduction chez le lapin a été établie. Cependant, les informations sur l'effet de la farine de graines de carotte (FGC) sur les caractéristiques qualitatives et quantitatives du sperme des lapins mâles sont rares et donc étudiées.

The use of biomolecules containing antioxidants and nutrients essential for growth and reproduction in rabbits have been established. However, information on the effect of carrot seed meal (CSM) on semen qualitative and quantitative characteristics of rabbit bucks is scanty and thus investigated. A 10-week investigation was conducted in order to assess the effects of orally administered CSM on reproductive performance and semen characteristics of rabbit bucks. A total of 24 mixed breed, adult rabbit bucks were randomly allotted to four treatments with six replicates each (T1-control, T2-0.2mg CSM/kg body weight, T3-0.4mg CSM/kg body weight and T4- 0.6mg CSM/kg body weight) in a completely randomised design. On weeks 8, 9 and 10, semen samples were collected from replicate bucks for semen quality assessment using standard procedures. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and ANOVA at á 0.05. Semen colour and mass activity were not influenced by CSM levels. Sperm cell livability was higher in bucks on T3 (100.00±0.00 %), T4 (100.00±0.00%) 'and T2 (98.67±2.31%) compared to T1 (94.67±1.53%).

Epididymal weight and epididymal sperm reserves were significantly (P<0.05) higher in bucks on T2, T3 and T4 than bucks on the control (T1). The average paired weights ( ) and sperm reserves (9.43±2.21×108 ) of epididymis of bucks administered 0.40mg CSM were the highest among the treatments. Testicular weight, sperm reserves per gram testis, daily sperm production and sperm production efficiency were not significantly (P>0.05) affected by varying levels of CSM.

Induced moulting in hens generate enormous physiological stress which compromises health, post moult performance, and food safety. To minimize moulting stress and mitigate its negative impacts, requires the adoption of management practices that reduce microbial infection, and spread, and enhance performance before, during, and after moulting. The present study therefore, evaluated the effects of ginger (Zingiber officinale) rhizome powder dietary supplementation on pre- and post-moult performance of shaver brown (SB) and indigenous (IC) layer chickens (85 weeks of age, 65 weeks in lay). The study was in three phases namely Phase I: pre-moulting evaluation, phase II: moulting treatment, and phase III: post moult evaluation. For each study, birds received 12 h natural light, and darkness, and were housed in individual laying cages provided with water nipples and feeding trough. Parameters measured were body weight (BW), hen day egg production (HDEP), and egg weight (EW). Results showed improved pre- and post-moult BW, HDEP, and EW in both genotypes in the groups fed dietary ginger powder. Genotypes did not differ significantly within dietary groups in the studied traits. Fasted SB hens fed ginger diet oviposited earlier than counterparts fed basal diet but the latter group attained 50 % HDEP earlier. Moulting BW loss was higher in fasted birds and in birds fed ginger diet pre-moulting than those fed basal diet. Whereas fasted SB hens oviposited during the period of study, the IC could not. Laying attained 100 % in Zn moulted genotypes and 66.8 % in fasted SB within 21 d post moulting. It is concluded that high dietary Zn is equally effective as fasting in moulting aged layer chickens and that ginger rhizome powder dietary supplementation improves pre- and post moult performance of laying hens. A shorter than 14 days moulting treatment or moulting to a target body weight loss is recommended for light breeds like the IC to enhance recovery and early postmoult egg production. La mue induite chez les poules génère un énorme stress physiologique qui compromet la santé, les performances après la mue et la sécurité alimentaire. Pour minimiser le stress de la mue et atténuer ses impacts négatifs, il faut adopter des pratiques de gestion qui réduisent l'infection microbienne et la propagation, et améliorent les performances avant, pendant et après la mue. La présente étude a donc évalué les effets de la supplémentation alimentaire en poudre de rhizome de gingembre (Zingiber officinale) sur les performances avant et après la mue des poules pondeuses brunes (PB) et indigènes (IC) (85 semaines d'âge, 65 semaines de ponte) . L'étude s'est déroulée en trois phases, à savoir la phase I : évaluation avant la mue, la phase II : traitement de la mue et la phase III : évaluation après la mue. Pour chaque étude, les oiseaux ont reçu 12 h de lumière naturelle et d'obscurité, et ont été logés dans des cages de ponte individuelles munies de tétines d'eau et
母鸡的诱导换羽会产生巨大的生理压力，影响健康、换羽后生产性能和食品安全。为了最大限度地减少换羽压力并减轻其负面影响，需要采取管理措施，减少微生物感染和传播，并在换羽之前、期间和之后提高生产性能。因此，本研究评价了饲粮中添加生姜(Zingiber officinale)粉末对剃须褐(SB)和土生(IC)蛋鸡(85周龄和65周龄)换毛前和换毛后生产性能的影响。研究分为三个阶段，即第一阶段:换羽前评估，第二阶段:换羽处理，第三阶段:换羽后评估。在每项研究中，鸟类接受12小时的自然光照和黑暗，并被安置在装有水乳头和喂食槽的单独蛋笼中。测定的参数为体重(BW)、母鸡日产蛋量(HDEP)和蛋重(EW)。结果表明，饲粮中添加生姜粉可改善两种基因型仔猪的换毛前和换毛后体重、HDEP和EW。不同饲粮组间性状基因型差异不显著。生姜饲粮比基础饲粮更早产卵，但基础饲粮更早达到50%的HDEP。换羽前禁食和生姜饲粮的换羽体重损失高于基础饲粮。而在研究期间禁食的SB母鸡则不能产卵。换羽后21 d内，锌换羽基因型产蛋率为100%，空腹换羽基因型产蛋率为66.8%。由此可见，饲粮中添加高锌与禁食对换羽龄蛋鸡的效果相当，饲粮中添加姜根粉可提高蛋鸡换羽前和换羽后的生产性能。对于像IC这样的轻品种，建议短于14天的换羽处理或换羽到目标体重减轻，以提高恢复和早期换羽后产蛋量。“我不知道你是在说什么，我不知道你是在说什么，我不知道你是在说什么，我不知道你在说什么。”为了最大限度地减少压力，使受感染的模数和模数对模数的影响最小化，将受感染的模数和模数的影响最小化，将受感染的模数和模数的影响最小化，将受感染的模数和模数的影响最小化，将受感染的模数和模数的影响最小化。在工人制(85个工人制)和65个工人制(65个工人制)的基础上，通过在工人制(85个工人制)和工人制(65个工人制)的基础上，将工人制(85个工人制)和工人制(65个工人制)的基础上，将工人制(15个工人制)与工人制(65个工人制)的效果结合起来。3个阶段:第一阶段:在未来的时间内进行评估;第二阶段:在未来的时间内进行评估;第三阶段:在未来的时间内进行评估。Pour chache e 'eau et d' abrevoirs .

Forage legume has been used to improved pasture for livestock production. Integration of pasture and forest tree has been advocated, this study investigated the agronomic performance, dry matter yield and proximate composition for velvet beans (Mucuna pruriens) established under silvopastoral system in humid tropics were assessed. The experiment was a 2 x 3 factorial arrangement fitted into a completely randomize design, comprising of two stages of growth and three different plant location (plain plot i.e. control, Annona muricata plantation and Irvingia gabonensis plantation). Agronomic indices, dry matters yield (DMY) and proximate composition were monitored. Results showed no significant (P>0.05) differences in all the agronomic indices (plant height (PH), leaf number (LN), leaf length (LL), leaf breath (LB) and leaf area (LA) across the plant locations. Significant (P<0.05) influence was observed for PH, LN, LL,LB and LA across the stages of growth. Mucuna established on Annona muricata plantation had higher (P<0.05) DMY (6.66 t/h) but similar (P>0.05) to the mucuna established on plain plot (control) (6.14 t/h). Similar (P>0.05) DMY was also recorded for plain plot (6.14 t/h) and Irvingia gabonensis plantation (5.74 t/h). The mucuna harvested at 16 weeks after sowing (WAS) had highest (P<0.05) DMY (8.54 t/h) compared to 10 WAS (3.84 t/h). There were no significant effects plant locations on dry matter(DM) content, crude protein (CP), ether extract (EE) and ash. More so, similar (P>0.05) contents of DM, CP and EE were observed across the stages of growth. Higher (P<0.05) ash content (8.95%) was recorded at 10 WAS, least (8.15%) was observed at 16 WAS. Conclusively, establishment of forage legume Mucuna pruriens within forest plantation does not negatively affect the agronomic performance, dry matter yield and proximate composition, it is therefore recommended for famers to established Mucuna pruriens alongside with forest plantation i.e. silvopastorial farming system, harvesting is also encouraged at 16 WAS.

Bans on the use of antibiotics as feed additives have accelerated and led to investigations of alternative feed additives in animal production. To this end, the response of broiler chickens fed various medicinal plants methanol extract as a replacement for antibiotics was investigated. A total of 180 unsexed Ross strain broiler chickens were randomly assigned to four available plant leaf extract namely, Gercinia kola (Bitter Kola), Alcornea cordifolia (Christmas bush), Pterocarpus santalinoides (Red scandal wood) and Chromolaena odorata (Hagony or Siam weed). Each treatment group had 30 birds each. The treatments were replicated thrice with 10 birds per replicate in a completely randomized design. Feed and water were provided ad libitum throughout the experiment which lasted for 56 days. Serum biochemical indices of the broiler chickens were evaluated.

Garlic has been reported by various researchers to reduce lipids in both human and animal studies. Garlic was also reported to have anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties in animal models. However, there is paucity of information on its effect on haematological indices of laying hens. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of inclusion of raw garlic in the diet of Nera black hens on their performance and haematological indices. One hundred and twenty 18- week-old Nera black pullets were randomly distributed to 6 dietary treatments containing 0%(T1), 1%(T2), 2%(T3), 3%(T4), 4%(T5) and 5%(T6) inclusion levels of Raw Garlic(RG) over 10 weeks. Each dietary treatment consisted of 10 replicates of 2 birds each. Feed intake, Egg weights (EW) and Hen Day Production (HDP) were recorded. Blood samples were collected at the termination of the experiment and analysed for haematological indices. Feed intake and EW were similar among treatment groups. Inclusion of 2% RG caused an increase in HDP (74.4%) when compared with birds fed 4%RG (56.2%), 5%RG (64.6%) and 0%RG (57%).Inclusion of varying levels of RG increased the haematocrit of birds in T2(32.0%), T3(33.6%), T4(29.6% ), T5(32.4%), T6(35.4%) versus T1(26.0%). The inclusion of 2%RG significantly increased the white blood cell ((6.9x109 /l) when compared with the WBC (4.8 x109 /l) of birds fed the control diet. The values of haemoglobin, mean corpuscular volume and mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentrations were similar in all treatment groups. Inclusion of RG up to 2%increased HDP and improved the PCV of laying hens while higher RG inclusion levels (5%) had no additional economic value to laying hens. L'ail a été rapporté par divers chercheurs pour réduire les lipides dans les études humaines et animales. L'ail aurait également des propriétés anti-inflammatoires et immunomodulatrices dans des modèles animaux. Cependant, il y a peu d'informations sur son effet sur les indices hématologiques des poules pondeuses. Cette étude a été menée pour étudier les effets de l'inclusion d'ail cru dans l'alimentation des poules noires Nera sur leurs performances et leurs indices hématologiques. Cent vingt poulettes noires Nera âgées de 18 semaines ont été distribuées au hasard à 6 traitements diététiques contenant 0%(T1), 1%(T2), 2%(T3), 3%(T4), 4%(T5) et Niveaux d'inclusion de 5 % (T6) d'ail cru (AC) sur 10 semaines. Chaque traitement alimentaire consistait en 10 répétitions de 2 oiseaux chacune. L'apport alimentaire, le poids des œufs (PŒ) et la production par jour de poule (PJP) ont été enregistrés. Des échantillons de sang ont été prélevés à la fin de l'expérience et analysés pour les indices hématologiques. L'apport alimentaire et le PŒ étaient similaires parmi les groupes de traitement.

在人类和动物研究中，许多研究人员都报道了大蒜可以降低脂质。据报道，大蒜在动物模型中也具有抗炎和免疫调节特性。然而，关于其对蛋鸡血液学指标的影响，目前还缺乏相关资料。本试验旨在研究饲粮中添加生蒜对黑鸡生产性能和血液学指标的影响。试验选用118只18周龄的黑斑内貂，随机分为添加0%(T1)、1%(T2)、2%(T3)、3%(T4)、4%(T5)和5%(T6)生大蒜的6个饲粮处理，为期10周。每个饲粮处理为10个重复，每个重复2只。记录采食量、蛋重和母鸡日产量。实验结束时采集血样，分析血液学指标。各组采食量和EW相近。与喂食4%RG(56.2%)、5%RG(64.6%)和0%RG(57%)的鸟相比，添加2% RG的鸟的HDP增加了74.4%。与T1(26.0%)相比，加入不同水平的RG使T2(32.0%)、T3(33.6%)、T4(29.6%)、T5(32.4%)、T6(35.4%)的红细胞压积增加。与对照组(4.8 × 109 /l)相比，添加2%RG显著提高了白血细胞(6.9 × 109 /l)。血红蛋白值、平均红细胞体积和平均红细胞血红蛋白浓度在所有治疗组中相似。添加2%的RG可提高蛋鸡的HDP和PCV，而添加5%的RG对蛋鸡没有额外的经济价值。所有的人都是与人类和动物一样的人，都是与人类和动物一样的人。L'ail aurait samacement des propriatimes samacement抗炎药，免疫调节剂，免疫调节剂，动物模型。在此之前，我将收集一些信息，以确定这些信息对人体的影响，并确定人体的健康状况。ceta - 3和ceta - 3的影响分别为:1、ceta - 3、ceta - 3、ceta - 3、ceta - 3、ceta - 3、ceta、ceta、ceta、ceta、ceta、ceta、ceta、ceta、ceta、ceta、ceta、ceta。分vingt poulettes黑色美国国家经济研究协会的人中de 18 semaines安大略省的高频distribuees盟hasard 6 traitements dietetiques contenant 0% (T1)、1% (T2)、2% (T3)、3% (T4)、4% (T5)等掌握d 'inclusion de 5% (T6) d 'ail cru (AC) 10 semaines苏尔。沙卡治疗方案包括10个与2个沙卡病有关的治疗方案。L'apport alimentaire, le poids des œufs (PŒ)和la production par our de people (PJP) not samuest enregistres。(3)有三个不同的指标，分别是:a、e、e、e、e、e、e、e、e、e。L'apport alimentaire et le PŒ与parmi集团相似。L'inclusion de 2 % de AC a entratran 1 augmentation du PJP (74,4%) par rapport aux oiseaux nourris平均4% de AC (56,2%)， 5% de AC(64,6%)和0% de AC(57%)。L'inclusion de different。2 % AC的添加量显著增加了白球蛋白含量(6,9 × 109/ L)，与白球蛋白含量(4,8 × 109/ L)、营养蛋白含量(4,8 × 109/ L)的差异。Les值d 'hemoglobine de体积平均corpusculaire et de corpusculaires浓度平均值d 'hemoglobine是否similaires de traitement的小组最令人舒服。(2)将AC和AC的数据相加，将AC和AC的数据相加，将AC和AC的数据相加，将AC和AC的数据相加，将AC和AC的数据相加，将AC和AC的数据相加，将AC和AC的数据相加，将AC和AC的数据相加，将AC和AC的数据相加，将AC和AC的数据相加，将AC和AC的数据相加。

An experiment was conducted at the Poultry Unit of the Teaching and Research Farm, Faculty of Agriculture, Kaduna State University, Kafanchan, Campus to determine the effect of feeding graded levels of Scent leaf (Ocimum gratissimum) meal on growth performance and carcass characteristics of broiler chickens. Eighty day old Ross chicks were allotted to 4 dietary groups replicated twice with 10 birds per replicate in a complete randomized design(CRD). The study lasted for 8 weeks with feed and water offered ad-libitum. Data werencollected on haematological (packed cell volume, red blood cell, haemoglobin, white blood cell, mean corpuscular haemoglobin, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration, lymphocyte, neutrophils) and serum (cholesterol, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein, high density lipoprotein) indices and were subjected to analysis of variance using the general linear model of SAS. All parameters measured on haematological and serum indices were not significantly (P>0.05) different in birds fed scent leaf meal and the control diet. Values obtained on haematological indices and liver function indices were within the normal range for chickens as reported in prior literature. Birds fed 100g scent leaf had lower white blood cell count than those fed 50g and 150g and even the control. The lipid profile of birds fed up to 150g scent leaf (O. gratissimum) showed improved protein function with good lipid profile and having reduced values for high density lipoprotein, low density lipoprotein, triglyceride and cholesterol than the control. It can be concluded that inclusion of scent leaf meal up to 150g did not pose any adverse effect on the haematological indices and normal functioning of the liver of broiler chickens and lipid profile. Une expérience a été menée à l'unité de volaille de la ferme d'enseignement et de recherche, faculté d'agriculture, université d'État de Kaduna, Kafanchan, campus pour déterminer l'effet de l'alimentation de niveaux gradués de farine de feuilles parfumées (Ocimum gratissimum) sur les performances de croissance et les caractéristiques de la carcasse du poulet à griller. Des poussins Ross âgés de quatre-vingts jours ont été répartis en 4 groupes alimentaires répétés deux fois avec 10 oiseaux par répétition dans une conception randomisée complète (CRC). L'étude a duré 8 semaines avec des aliments et de l'eau offerts à volonté. Des données ont été recueillies sur les paramètres hématologiques (hématocrite, globules rouges, hémoglobine, globules blancs, hémoglobine corpusculaire moyenne, volume corpusculaire moyen, concentration corpusculaire moyenne en hémoglobine, lymphocytes, neutrophiles) et sériques (cholestérol, triglycérides, lipoprotéines de basse densité, haute densité lipoprotéines) et ont été soumis à une analyse de variance à l'aide du modèle linéaire général de SAS.

This study was conducted to investigate the phytogenic influence of Mango (Mangiferaindica L). Leaf Meal (BLM) and Bamboo (Bambusa vulgaris S.)Charcoal (BC)on gut microbial integrity and ammonia production in noiler chickens. A total of seventy-two Noiler chicken of both sexes with an average weight of 55.00±8.52g were allotted to four dietary treatments in a completely randomised design with each treatment having three replicates. The freshly harvested BLM were air-dried and BC prepared, using standard procedure, were milled and incorporated into the bird's diet. Commercial broiler feeds were purchased and used as the basal diet. Birds in the first treatment (T1) were fed the basal diet only while those in the second treatment (T2) were fed combination of the basal diet and 0.5% BLM, third treatment (T3) combination of the basal diet and 0.5% BC and fourth treatment (T4) fed combination of the basal diet with 0.5% BLM and 0.5% BC. Feed and water were given ad libitum. At day 42 of the feeding trial, faecal samples were collected for ammonia production using Kjeldahl method, blood samples (5mL each) were collected for haematological parameters and three birds per replicate were sacrificed and ileal content collected for the gut microbial count following standard procedures. The faecal nitrogen value of 9.83±0.75 in noiler chickens fed T2 was significantly higher than in other treatmentswhileT4 was lowest(5.57±0.92). Significant differences (p<0.05)were also noticed in the Packed Cell Volume (PCV), Haemoglobin Counts, White Blood Cells (WBC) and the Platelets. The PCV value of 46.67±7.69recorded in birds fed T2 was higher than others while 28.67±3.71 in T3 was the lowest. Birds fed T2 had the highest haemoglobin count (14.87±2.35) and least for those on T3(9.33±1.17). Also, noiler chickens fedT2 recorded the highest WBC count (286333.33±34671.47)while the lowest value(11716.67±3927.50) was observed in those fed T1. Similar trend was observed in platelet, where the highest value of 286333.33±34671.47 was recorded in birds fed T2 and the lowest (142000.00±27006.17) in those fed T1. There were no significant differences (p>0.05) in the gut microbial population across all the treatments. In conclusion, noiler chickens fed combination of 0.5% Mango leaf meal and 0.5% bamboo charcoal lowered ammonia production, with no adverse on the microbial population in the gut and health of the chickens.
