Quail raising process

Abstract

The invention relates to animal husbandry, in particular to the process of raising quails for increase productivity and meat quality by using the complex biologically active microbial preparation, obtained from yeast biomass from winemaking wastes and spirulina biomass, as the part of the daily ration of quails, in the ratio of 0.5% of the ration during the period of 1-44 days and 0.25% during the period of 45-60 days. The process ensures the viability of chicks of 98% in the experimental group compared to 83% in the control group, the decrease of the titer of conditionally pathogenic bacteria E. coli by 4.96%, the increase of the titer of beneficial microorganisms Lactobacillus spp. by 18.40%, Bifidobacterium spp. by 11.61% and Bacillus spp. by 4.56% in the gastrointestinal tract of the chicks, increasing the body mass of the chicks by 13.46% compared to the control, obtaining quail meat with the higher protein content by 3.92% and lower fat content by 3.02% compared to the control group and obtaining economic efficiency of 0.23€//quail. The process contributes to increasing the egg laying intensity of quails at the age of 60 days by 29.54%, increasing the weight, longitudinal and transverse diameter of eggs by 25.79%, 21.84% and 14.38% respectively, and obtaining of daily income of 0.03 €/head of laying quail from egg production. The research was carried out within the project 24.80012.5107.SE „Diversification of feed aditives in poultry farming”, funded by NARD.
