This study was conducted at Barangay 03 Salbang in Paoay, Ilocos Norte, <br/>Philippines on November 10, 2023 to January 08, 2024. A total of 120 ready-to-lay <br/>quails were used in the study, which were randomly and equally distributed into four <br/>dietary treatments and were replicated three times. The experiment was set up in a <br/>Completely Randomized Design. The different dietary treatments were as follows: (T0) <br/>100% Pure Commercial Feeds (CF), (T1) 92.5% CF + 7.5 % Moringa oleifera seed <br/>meal (MOSM), (T2) – 90 % CF + 10 % MOSM, (T3) 88% CF + 12% MOSM. The study <br/>aimed to determine the growth performance (weight and weight gain), health status <br/>(morbidity and mortality rates), laying performance (age at first egg, egg production, <br/>feed consumption, feed conversion ratio, and feed cost per dozen egg), and egg <br/>quality (egg width, egg weight, egg mass, and yolk color) as well as the production of <br/>Japanese quail. The collected data was summarized in a tabular form using Microsoft Excel. <br/>Furthermore, the Statistical Tool for Agricultural Research (STAR 2.0.1) software was <br/>used in analyzing the data collected and to significant variations between treatments <br/>Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) for CRD was used as well as the Significant Difference <br/>(LSD) test to compare the treatment means at 5% level of significance. <br/>Results of the study showed that quails fed with pure commercial feeds <br/>exhibited better growth and laying performance, as well as higher profitability, <br/>compared to those fed with MOSM. However, there were no significant differences in <br/>age at first egg, feed conversion ratio, and egg weight. Additionally, there were no <br/>adverse health effects or fatalities observed with the inclusion of MOSM. Based on <br/>these findings, it is recommended to further investigate alternative supplements or <br/>feed formulations that offer similar benefits to MOSM supplementation without <br/>sacrificing the performance and profitability. This could involve exploring other natural <br/>ingredients or additives that enhance egg quality without affecting growth performance <br/>and laying performance. |
