A 70-d experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of feeding poultry broiler litter (BL) at levels 0 (BL0; n = 10), 100 (BL100; n = 10), and 200 g/kg (BL200; n = 10) on performance and carcass characteristics Awassi lambs. Nutrient intakes [i.e., dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), crude protein (CP), neutral detergent fiber (aNDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), and copper] were similar (P>0.05) between all diets except for ether extract (EE) intake which tended to be lower (P≤0.10) for the BL20 diet than the BL0 diet whereas BL100 not different from the other two diets. Dry matter, OM, CP, aNDF, and ADF digestibility was lower (P 0.05) average daily gain (ADG) and dry matter intake (DMI):ADG. For dissected loin, intermuscular fat content was lower (P |
