Article Synopsis
- Two experiments assessed fenugreek seeds (FS) as a substitute for antibiotic growth promoters in broiler chickens, utilizing a total of 304 Ross chicks across different diets.
- Results showed that FS negatively impacted growth performance during the starter phase, lowering body weight gain and feed intake while increasing feed conversion ratio, with no significant effects in the finisher phase.
- The inclusion of FS also led to increased white blood cell counts and negative changes in intestinal morphology, indicating potential health concerns for broiler chickens.
