This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of LED light color and stocking density on the growth performance, carcass, and breast meat quality characteristics of quails. The experiment comprised 720 1-day-old mixed-sex Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) randomly divided into 6 experimental groups with 4 replicates in each group. Experimental treatments included three different LED light colors (white, monochromatic blue, and monochromatic green) and two different stocking densities (100 and 200 cm2/bird) in a 3x2 factorial design. The feed intake and body weight of quails were measured weekly. At 42 days of age, 20 quails per treatment group were randomly selected for carcass and breast meat quality characteristics analysis. Body weight gain was significantly higher in the blue and green LED light treatments (P |
