Background: Meloxicam is used widely for exotic animal analgesia, but its toxicity in common raptor species in Thailand is unclear.
Objectives: This study evaluated the single-dose effect of intramuscular meloxicam in common raptor species in Thailand for short-term and long-term periods.
Methods: Twenty-two raptors were administered a single 1 mg/kg dose of meloxicam individually via intramuscular injection.
Article Synopsis
- Silkworm pupae, a by-product of silk production, are often wasted despite being rich in protein and lipids, which could benefit livestock feed, especially for birds.
- The study investigated how adding full-fat or defatted silkworm pupa meal to quail diets affected nutrient digestibility and feed preferences.
- Results showed that quails on silkworm diets consumed more but digested less efficiently, indicating potential issues with compounds like 1-Deoxynojirimycin, while they also preferred the control diet over the swm options.
