| Özet |
| The study was conducted to determine the effects of feeding diets containing two levels of metabolisable energy (normal or low) and three sources of fat (palm-, sunflower- or fish-oil) with or without L-carnitine (0 or 500 mg / kg diet) on the performance and egg quality parameters of Brown egg-type laying hens. The hens receiving the low energy diet had significantly higher body weights and feed intakes (FI) than the birds on the normal energy diet, but their feed conversion ratio (FCR) was poorer. L-carnitine in the diet containing sunflower oil (SO) increased FI significantly, resulting in a poorer FCR. However, the FI and FCR were higher when the fish oil (FO) was added to diets without L-carnitine compared to the other diets. The palm oil (PO) supplemented diet without L-carnitine significantly decreased the specific gravity of the eggs. L-carnitine inclusion into the diet containing PO significantly … |
