@article{Shuibu_Usman_2024, title={UTILIZATION OF MAIZE OFFALS AS A REPLACEMENTTO WHEAT OFFALS AS DIETARY FIBRE SOURCES BY BROILER CHICKENS AT STARTER PHASE}, url={https://mail.njap.org.ng/index.php/njap/article/view/4221}, DOI={10.51791/njap.vi.4221}, abstractNote={<p>An experiments was conducted to evaluate the response of broiler chickens to dietary levels of maize offal as replacement to wheat offal. Using a completely randomized design, three hundred broiler chicks were used in the trial. Feed and water were supplied ad lib and the trial lasted for 4 weeks. In the experiments maize offal replaces wheat offal as diet 1,2,3,4 and 5 respectively, as 0 (diet 1), 25 (diet 2), 50 (diet 3), 75 (diet 4), and (diet 5)100% levels. The Results showed no significant influence (P<0.05) of diet on initial weight, total weight, final weight gain and feed conversion ratio. However, performance traits significantly (P<0.05) differ among the diets on total feed intake, daily feed intake, daily weight gain and week 4 weight gain respectively. It was therefore concluded that maize offal can replace wheat offal in broiler chicken diets without compromising performance.</p>}, journal={Nigerian Journal of Animal Production}, author={Shuibu, I. and Usman, Y.}, year={2024}, month={Jul.}, pages={57–60} }
