Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the effects of using aromatic and medicinal plant remnants (mint, fennel, basil, anise) in place of 50% of alfalfa hay in the diets of New Zealand white rabbits, incorporating probiotics as well.
- A total of 108 rabbits were divided into nine groups over an eight-week period, and various blood hematological and biochemical parameters were analyzed to assess the impact of these dietary changes.
- Results indicated that different plant remnants and probiotics influenced various blood characteristics, with basil + probiotics showing the highest RBC and lymphocyte levels, while anise + probiotics had the highest hemoglobin and creatinine levels.
<b>Background and Objective:</b> The inclusion of clay minerals in dairy nutrition is getting attention owing to their proven beneficial effects. The current study aimed to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation of three different clay minerals (bentonite, zeolite and humic acid) on the performance of lactating Boer goats. <b>Materials and Methods:</b> Twenty lactating Boer goats (having an average body weight ~42.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of usage tomato pomace, citrus and beet pulp in dried form in diets on the performance of lactating buffaloes and milk quality.
Materials And Methods: Fifteen milking Egyptian buffaloes at the second and third seasons of lactation were divided into five groups (3 animals in each) to fed on five experimental rations.
Background And Objective: Protein considered the second main nutrient in diet formulation for all types of animals after energy. Present study aimed to evaluate the effect of different treatments on the nutritive value of Jatropha meal (JM) by in vitro and in vivo trials as protein source in sheep diet.
Materials And Methods: Chemical composition, in vitro digestibility, gas production and phorbol esters (PE) were recorded for physically, chemically and biologically treated Jatropha meal.
Background And Objective: Olive by-products could be a suitable alternative feedstuffs ingredient in ruminants rations. This study was carried out to evaluate effects of replacing clover hay by olive cake with or without addition of poly ethylene glycol in growing lambs ration.
Methodology: Thirty five Barki lambs averaged 34 kg body weight and 5 months old were divided into 5 groups (7 animals of each) according to live weight for 90 days feeding trial.
