CHAVEZ-MORA, Ivon et al. Effect of aqave oliqofructose feed on eqq production from layinq hens. Rev.MVZ Cordoba [online]. 2019, vol.24, n.1, pp.7108-7112. ISSN 0122-0268. https://doi.org/10.21897/rmvz.1522.
Objective.
To determine egg production in laying hens treated with oligofructose from agave.
Materials and methods.
Eighteen weeks old Hy-line W-36 hens (n = 300) were distributed randomly into 3 treatment groups: no feed supplementation (control) or feed supplementation with 0.1% of 0.2% oligofructose from agave (OFA). Hens were monitored from development until 30 weeks of egg laying.
Results.
A significant (p<0.05) increase in the percent of egg-laying hens as well as increased in egg weight and egg quality occurred in hens from the OFA treatment groups relative to the control hens. Significantly lower levels (p<0.05) of fecal putrescine were observed in hens from the OFA treatment groups.
Conclusions.
The oligofructose from agave may be used as an alternative feed additive in laying hens.
