Semen evaluation is a routine practice in breeding soundness evaluation and investigation of fertility breeder male farm animals. Artificial insemination (A.I.) requires an objective and rapid, but inexpensive, method to evaluate ejaculates. The goal of semen assessment is to predict fertilising ability of the semen of breeding buck. A study was conducted to investigate the effects of raw Aloe barbadensis leaf gel (Gelraw) on quality and spermatozoa fertilising potential of extended goat semen. Semen was collected from buck using electro-ejaculator and were diluted with raw Aloe barbadensis Gel (Gelraw) at 7.00(GEYCE)+0.00(Gelraw), 5.25(GEYCE)+1.75(Gelraw), 3.50(GEYCE)+3.50(Gelraw), 1.75(GEYCE)+5.25(Gelraw), 0.00(GEYCE)+7.00(Gelraw) as T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 respectively. Extended semen samples were evaluated at 0, 24, 48 and 72 h for quality and spermatozoa fertilising potential. All treatments were replicated thrice in completely randomized design. At 72-h, Normal Spermatozoa (NS) and Acrosome Integrity (AcI) of 5.25g/L Gelraw treated samples significantly increased to 78.33±2.0% and 82.23±4.3% compared to 67.33±7.0% and 73.33±5.0% respectively in the control while ProgressiveMotility (PM) and Plasma Membrane Integrity (PMI) were not significantly affected. Aloe barbadensis gel (Gelraw) added to diluent at 7.00g/L offered cytoprotection to extended buck spermatozoa for 72 hours.

Understanding the effects of different feed ingredients incorporated into livestock feed and the demand for nutritious and sustainable food sources necessitate the need to explore alternative feed options for livestock. Evaluating the potential benefits of incorporating African Yam Bean (AYB) into snail diets is crucial in optimizing feed efficiency and enhancing the profitability of Snail farming. The study was designed to determine the effect of African Yam Bean meal (AYB), an underutilized legume in the diet of snails on dressing percentage, texture, flavor, general acceptability, protein and fat contents of the meat. 120 growing snails with mean weight of 73.42 ± 2.5g were used for the feeding trial. 4 diets were formulated to contain African Yam Beans (AYB) at 0% (AYB1) Control, 50% (AYB2), 75% (AYB3) and 100% (AYB4) as replacement for soya bean fraction in the diet. Complete Randomized Design was used for the trial; each treatment was replicated thrice with 10 snails per replicate. Carcass evaluation (dressing percentage, texture, flavor, general acceptability, protein and fat contents of the meat among others) were carried out at the end of the 120 days feeding trial. The dressing percentage of the snails was not significantly influenced by dietary treatments (P>0.05) and varied between 44.43 and 45.34%. The offal live weight and shell live weight percent were not significantly influenced by the varying inclusion of AYB in the diet (P>0.05). There were no significant difference in the crude protein (CP), taste of the meat, color, flavor, texture of the meat and general acceptability of the meat (P> 0.05). The Physico-chemical qualities of the meat were not affected by the inclusion of AYB in the diet. African Yam Bean meal could therefore be harnessed as alternative feed ingredient to Soyabean meal for snail. Les acides organiques sont soit des acides monocarboxyliques simples comme les acides formique, acétique, propionique et butyrique, soit des acides carboxyliques avec le groupe hydroxyle comme les acides lactique, malique, tartrique et citrique ou des acides carboxyliques à chaîne courte contenant des doubles liaisons comme les acides fumarique et sorbique. L'étude visait à évaluer les effets de niveaux gradués d'un mélange de quatre acides organiques sur les caractéristiques des carcasses, le pH du digesta et les mesures des organes internes de poulets de chair nourris avec des niveaux gradués de mélanges de quatre acides organiques.

This study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of the vaccine (monovalent aqueous, AqMV and adjuvant, AdMV), turmeric (Curcuma longa) rhizome (TR) and soursop (Annona muricata) leaves (SL) on survival, morphometric indices and intestinal histomorphology of Clarias gariepinus fingerlings. Experimental diets were composed of Control (0%), AqMV2, AdMV3, TR4(0.5), TR5(1.0), TR6(2.0), SL7(0.5), SL8(1.0), and SL9(2.0). A total of 360 Clarias gariepinus with an average mean weight of 4.91± 0.01g were replicated twice in a completely randomized design with 20 fish per replicate and were fed twice daily at 40% crude protein for 8 weeks. The survival, condition factor, morphometric indices and intestinal histomorphology were measured using standard methods. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and ANOVA at P= 0.05. The result of the study revealed that the survival rate of the fish was better in the treated groups compared to the control and there was a significant difference (P<0.05) among the dietary groups. The result of the morphometric indices shows that there was a general increase in the values of total length, standard length, dorsal width, height and a head length of C. gariepinus fingerlings. Also, it was observed that the weight increased as the week of the feeding trial increased and the treated groups perform better than the control group. The result of intestinal histomorphology obtained at the end of the experiment showed that the treated groups perform better in the area of absorption, goblet cells, villi width, and cryptal depth when compared to the control and there were significantly differences (P<0.05) among the dietary groups. However, the treatment with turmeric rhizome perform better than the soursop groups when compared to the control. Conclusively, the incorporation of vaccine, turmeric rhizome and soursop leaves-based diet positively impacted on survival, morphometric indices and intestinal histomorphology of C. gariepinus fingerlings.

Phytogenic feed additives such as ginger, garlic and turmeric are plant derived products which when added to livestock feed have the ability to enhance livestock performance through the improvement of digestibility, absorption of nutrients, and are also able to eliminate pathogenic microbes residing in the gut of the animal. The effects of sun drying on the bioactive components of ginger and subsequent performance of broiler chickens were evaluated using 180 broiler chicks of Arbor Acres strain. Fresh ginger rhizomes were cut into 2-3 mm thick slices., sundried and then milled. The proximate and bioactive compositions of fresh and sundried samples were determined. Thereafter, three experimental broiler diets were formulated such that diets 1 (control) and 3 contained no ginger. Diet 2 contained 0.5 % sundried ginger meal. However, broilers placed on diet 3 were also offered a fresh equivalent of 0.5 % sundried ginger through the drinking water. Data was collected on growth performance parameters, haematology and serum biochemical indices, carcass and meat quality characteristics. Twenty and nineteen bioactive compounds were identified in the fresh ginger and sundried ginger rhizomes respectively, with most of the components being higher in concentration in fresh than in dry ginger. Gingerol and shogaol were present in fresh but not in dry ginger while alpha-cedrol detected in dry ginger was not found in fresh ginger. Final live-weight, weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion ratio were not significantly (p>0.05) affected by dietary treatments in the starter phase. In the finisher phase, live-weight, weight gain and growth rate were significantly (p < 0.05) higher in the fresh ginger group compared to dry ginger and control groups. The cost of feed consumed was significantly (p < 0.05) higher in the ginger groups compared to the control group while feed cost per kilogram weight gain was significantly higher in dry ginger compared to fresh ginger and control groups. Carcass and meat quality parameters were not significantly (p>0.05) affected by fresh or dry ginger treatment. The haematological indices were not significantly (p>0.05) affected by either form of ginger supplementation. Serum glucose concentration was significantly (p<0.05) reduced by the inclusion of dry ginger in broiler chicken diets (T2). The study, therefore, concluded that providing broiler chickens with fresh ginger through drinking water was more efficacious in promoting growth performance than the inclusion of sundried ginger in the diets.

The utilization of selected macro and micro minerals was evaluated in 16 pregnant West African dwarf goats of weight 19.38 ± 2.30 kg, fed Guinea grass basal diet and cassava peel-leaf meal concentrate supplement was conducted during the 19th and 20th week of pregnancy. Four pregnant does were allotted in a completely randomized design to each of the four experimental diets (treatments) of Guinea grass basal diets and concentrate supplements at 50%. The CPM partially replaced Wheat offal at 0, 25, 50, and 75% while CLM completely replaced the protein source- PKC at same levels as CPM. The diets were T1 (control), T2 (25% replacement of wheat offal (WO) and Palm kernel cake (PKC), with cassava peel meal (CPM) and cassava leaf meal (CLM), T3 (50 % replacement of WO and PKC, with CLM and CPM) and T4 (75% replacement of WO and PKC, with CLM and CPM). Feed was offered at 50 g DM /Kg BW, and the metabolism cages. The content of Ca, N, P, Mg, K, Mn, Cu and Zn in the Guinea grass and concentrate supplement fed the pregnant goats, in addition to the mineral content of faeces and urine voided was determined using the dry ashing and wet digestion methods using AOAC procedures. The concentration of each mineral was read using the atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Data obtained were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) using (SAS, 2014) and significant differences were declared at 5 % probability level and means were separated using Duncan Multiple Range Test. The content of the minerals studied in respective diets were between 0.231-0.423% Ca, 2.520-3.360% N, 0.0096-0.0135% Mn, 0.144-0.162% P, 0.155-0.160% K, 0.055-0.070% Mg, 0.0008-0.0012% Cu and 0.0051-0.0070% Zn. Significant variations were observed in the utilization of Ca, K and Cu. Retention and digestibility of Ca was highest in T2. However, no significant variations were observed in the retention and digestibility of Mn, P, Mg and Zn across the treatments. The N balance and digestibility was not significantly influenced by the replacement levels. Conclusively, positive balance, high retention and digestibility were obtained for all the minerals studied across the treatments. Thus, wheat offal and palm kernel cake can be replaced at 25,50 and 75% in the diets of pregnant West African dwarf goats without negatively affecting their utilization of Ca, N, P, Mg, K, Mn, Cu and Zn.

There is need for breeders and farmers to know the best mating method to employ and the breeding goals to expect in rabbit breeding programmes. However, information on which breed should be used as male or female in crossbreeding rabbit for commercial purpose is limited. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of reciprocal crossing on body weight (BW), reproductive, morphometric and carcass characteristics of two breeds of rabbits, New Zealand White (NZW) and chinchilla (CHA) raised in tropics. Offspring from the crossing of NZW x CHA and CHA x NZW were studied for body weight (BW) and reproductive traits for twelve weeks. Reproductive traits studied were litter size at birth (LSB), litter size at weaning (LSW), Average birth weight (ABWT), Average weaning weight (AWWT), Gestation length(GSTL) and percent mortality. Morphometric traits studied were body width (BWD), body length (BL), heart girth (HG) and tail length (TL). While carcass characteristics were dressed weight, foreleg, thoracic, loin, hind and skin. The heterotic values and their percentages were calculated in the two genetic groups using the linear contrast procedure. The direct and percent heterosis for reproductive traits were all positive for the two genetic groups except in gestation length and percent mortality which showed negative heterosis (-1 and 3.2%; 3.19;10.12% for gestation length and -7.19 and -19.07; -9.36 and -24.83% for percent mortality in CHA X NZW and NZW X CHA respectively). Body weight at different ages studied, morphometric and carcass traits were also positive for NZW x CHA off springs while CHA x NZW off springs had negative values for all these parameters measured indicating that CHA sired off springs had no improvement for BW at various ages, reproductive, morphometric and carcass traits studied. It could therefore be concluded that rapid improvement in Body weight, Reproductive, morphometric and carcass could be achieved by crossbreeding involving mating of New Zealand White male and Chinchilla does.

The study assessed efficacy of Artemether-Lumefantrine in goats infected with Surra using examination of parasitaemia directly and indirectly with animal inoculation using mice as a more sensitive diagnosis, serum biochemistry and stress indices. This antimalarial drug was investigated for its trypanocidal potentials in goat. Twelve male goats approximately weighing 6.94±0.39kg were divided into 3 groups of 4 animals each as replicates in a completely Randomized Design. The untreated control, Diminazene treatment and Artemether treatment represented groups 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Three (3) male albino mice were used for the animal inoculation technique with the 1st, 2nd and 3rd mouse representing groups 1, 2 and 3 respectively. The AST, ALT, Albumin, Total Protein, MDA, GSH, SOD and parasitaemia of the goats were subjected to one way ANOVA, they were also represented as histogram graphs. Results revealed similar (P>0.05) influence across the groups except GSH which had group 2 value to be significantly higher (P<0.05) than group 1. Parasitaemia of the goats were low (0.03) and most times undetected, the mice of groups 1 and 3 had massive parasitaemia (4.83 and 4.63) and that of group 2 was not detected (0.00) because the goats were treated twice with a double dose Diminazene which may have cleared the parasites from its blood stream. Mice inoculation showed the inability of the anti malaria drug to clear completely the T. evansi from the goat’s blood. The serum biochemical indices and stress markers revealed higher values at infection of T. evansi when compared to their values prior to T. evansi inoculation across the three groups with exception of GSH of groups 2 and 3 where the values prior to T. evansi inoculation was higher than the values at the 37th day of infection. The study has shown that Diminazene aceturate has better potency in clearing the T. evansi from the blood stream of the WAD goats than the tested drug Artemether-lumefantrine. Although the test drug ameliorated the effect of the disease on the liver of the goats as revealed in the lower liver enzymes compared to control and diminazene treated groups 1 and 2.

Parasitaemia of the goats were low (0.03) and most times undetected, the mice of groups 1 and 3 had massive parasitaemia (4.83 and 4.63) and that of group 2 was not detected (0.00) because the goats were treated twice with a double dose Diminazene which may have cleared the parasites from its blood stream. Mice inoculation showed the inability of the anti malaria drug to clear completely the T. evansi from the goat’s blood. The serum biochemical indices and stress markers revealed higher values at infection of T. evansi when compared to their values prior to T. evansi inoculation across the three groups with exception of GSH of groups 2 and 3 where the values prior to T. evansi inoculation was higher than the values at the 37th day of infection. The study has shown that Diminazene aceturate has better potency in clearing the T. evansi from the blood stream of the WAD goats than the tested drug Artemether-lumefantrine.

Protein ingredients represent substantial proportion of the cost of turkey ration. Fish meal (FM), a vital protein ingredient is expensive and scarce. Shrimp waste meal (SWM) shows a prospect as an alternative to FM. Effects of substituting FM with SWM in the diets of Nigerian indigenous turkeys (NIT) was determined in a 112-day feeding trial using eighty (80) four weeks old male NIT. The turkeys were allotted on weight equalization to four treatment groups replicated four times with five turkeys per replicate. Four starter and grower diets were formulated such that FM was substituted with SWM at 0, 150, 300 and 450 g/kg of diets. The experiment was arranged in a completely randomized design and data collected were analyzed using ANOVA. Means of significant results were compared by Duncan multiple range test. A probability of p < 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. At starter phase, turkeys fed 0 g/kg SWM had (p < 0.05) higher cost of feed per kilogram. Other parameters were not significantly affected by the treatments. In the grower phase, the final liveweight and weight gain of the turkeys did not significantly differ between turkeys fed control diet (0 g/kg SWM) and those fed 150 g/kg SWM. However, they differ significantly from other treatments. Serum total protein reduced (p < 0.05) as the levels of SWM increased in the diets. However, albumin values increased with increased SWM. It was concluded that SWM can substitute FM at 150 g/kg in the diets of NIT without any adverse effect.
