Abstract:
For feeding slow breeding broilers, of Fermier type, we have used a foddering
programme, based exclusively, on cereals mixture. It resulted in getting, at 42 days, an
average weight of only 462 g, which represented 41% of the weight of broilers, fed, at the
same age, only with complete mixed fodder. After 10 days of farm mixture administering, when
mixed fodder was used for starting, the average weight of broilers at 42 days was by 33%
higher than the weight of broilers fed only with farm mixture. The 10-day starting with mixed
fodder was not sufficient, as the average weight of broilers from this group was lower by 60%,
compared to the weight of broilers fed only with mixed fodder.
