Reza, Abidur | Rahman, Md. Atiar
An experiment was conducted with one hundred and sixty day -old straight run RIR chicks of same body size and weight for 13 weeks. Four sio-caloric and iso-nitrogenous diets containing 0, 20, 22 and 24% vapor treated poultry droppings were used in the experiments which were termed as T(1), T(2), T(3) and T(4). The total body weight gain per bird in the treatments T(1), T(2), T(3) and T(4) were 744.75, 78682, 79054 and 795.27g respectively. The total feed consumption per bird was 3542.14, 3604.99, 3685.70 and 3514.50g and the feed efficiencies were 4.76, 4.58, 4.66 and 4.47g/g of body weight gain in the treatment groups T(1), T(2), T(3) and T(4) respectively. Feed cost per bird was highest (Taka 22.37) for control group and lowest (Taka 1977) for the group receiving 24% poultry droppings in the diet.
