1996
Chmelnicna, L. | Kyselovic, J.
Growth abilities of turkey-hens and turkey-cocks up to 7 weeks of age during fattening in cages (at 27 birds per square meter up to 5 weeks of age and at 14 birds per square meter up to 7 weeks of age) were investigated. Live weights of turkey-cocks were significantly higher (P lower than or equal to 0.05) up to 5 weeks of age, absolute weight gain and average weight gain of turkey-cocks were higher up to 6 weeks of age, but relative weight gain was balanced in both sexes. Feed consumption per kg live weight increase up to 7 weeks of age was lower in turkey-cocks (1.902 kg) compared to turkey-hens (2.021 kg). The levels of biochemical parameters were within reference limits. Content and biochemical parameter activity values observed were significantly higher in favour of turkey-cocks. ALT- and AST-activities were higher by 12.32 percent, chlorides content higher by 4.25 percent, and anorganic phosphorus content higher by 3.29 percent than in turkey-hens
