Effects of Dietary Tribulus terrestris With Different Carriers on Performance and Egg Quality of Laying HensThis study has been carried out to determine the effect of powder of Tribulus terrestris (TT) which is a rich saponin source, added in diets of laying hen with in cotton oil, cellulose and bentonite, on the cholesterol level of egg yolk, blood parameters, the level of ash calcium, egg quality and the performance characteristics of white laying hens. In total 192 hens were used by allocating them into 12 groups each included 16 animals. Treatment groups were control (0); 1 g TT; 2 g TT; 0.1 g cotton oil; 0.5 g cellulose; 0.5 g bentonite; 1 g TT with 0.1 g cotton oil; 2 g TT with 0.2 g cotton oil; 1 g TT with 0.5 g cellulose; 2 g TT with 1 g cellulose; 1 g TT with 0.5 g bentonite and 2 g TT with 1 g bentonite. The blood calcium levels increased at the groups of 2 g of TT, 2 g of TT powder with in bentonite, 1 g and 2 g of TT powder with in oil compared to the control group (P< 0.001). Yolk index and haugh units levels to numerically increased at the group of 1 g of TT powder with in bentonite compared to the control group (P> 0.05). Egg yolk cholesterol levels to numerically decreased at the groups of 2 g of TT powder with in bentonite and 2 g of TT powder with in cellulose compared to the control group (P> 0.05). |
