The study aimed to determine the carcass characteristics of native chickens consumed gedi (Abelmoschus manihot (L) Medik) leaves in drinking water. A total of 100 unsexed DOC super native chickens were used. The treatments were: water without gedi leaves; 10 mL of gedi leaves juice (GLJ)/L; 20 mL of GLJ/L and 30 mL of GLJ/L. Treatments began to drink to chickens 6 weeks of age, for 5 weeks. Diet was 73% commercial diet plus 10% yellow corn and 17% rice bran. The study used a CRD consisting of 4 treatments and 5 replications. The data have been processed into the following indicators: carcass yield (carcass weight, percentage of carcass, and percentage of carcass commercial pieces), and carcass characteristics (percentage of heart, liver, gizzard, pancreas, and abdominal fat). Results showed that the administration of GLJ up to 30 mL had a non-significant different effect on carcass yield and carcass characteristics except in liver was significantly different. GLJ did not have a negative effect on livestock, there was even a tendency to reduce the abdominal fat, and economically still profitable. As a conclusion, GLJ can be used as an alternative additive in drinking water of native chicken up to 30 mL/L. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
