Protein and Energy Requirements of Breeding Partridges
2015
Cufadar, Yusuf
Previous studies were generally focused on the energy and protein requirements of broilers, quails, layer hens and the other gamebirds such as pheasants, but studies on breeder chukar partridges are limited. In most of the practical cases, the diet formulations as well as environmental conditions for partridges has been based on the use of nutrient requirements and optimal housing conditions set up for other ornamental birds. The composition of diet affects the performance in poultry. Dietary metabolizable energyand protein levels in diet are known to affect the egg production and egg weights. There is considerable information on protein and energy requirements of other game birds, but very little information is available on those of partridge.
