This study examined the growth performance, carcass and blood characteristics of broiler chickens fed sand box seed meal - based diets supplemented with or without enzyme (Allzyme®Vegpro5X). A total of 240 unsexed day - old broiler chicks were randomly allotted to three dietary treatments in a completely randomized design experiment. There were four replicates of 20 birds each. The three experimental diets were formulated such that the control diet (T1) had neither sand box seed meal nor enzyme, while soybean meal was replaced with sand box seed meal (100%) without enzyme (T2) and soybean bean meal replaced with sand box seed meal (SBSM) supplemented with enzyme (1g/kg of feed) (T3) for both starter and finisher diets. Performance parameters were monitored during the feeding trial. Results at the starter phase showed significant (p0.05) differences. The final live weight (FLW), daily weight gain (DWG), feed conversion ratio (FCR) and protein efficiency ratio (PER) all tended to significantly (p |
