Studies with broilers reared on different floor types with and without padded roosts

Creator:: Simpson, Gregory D.
Abstract:: I. Performance and Carcass Quality of Broilers Raised on Wire Flooring With and Without Padded Roosts Two experiments were performed with broilers raised on wire flooring with and without padded roosts to study the effects of bird performance and carcass quality. Each experiment had 480 straight-run commercial broilers divided equally...

Comparison on the effectiveness of different chemical treatments of built-up broiler litter on broiler house environment and broiler performance

Creator:: Uddin, Zaheer
Abstract:: The objectives in these four experiments were to observe the effectiveness of sodium bisulfate and clinoptilolite and different methods of application of sodium bisulfate, ferrous sulfate heptahydrate and Micro Aide® on atmospheric ammonia level in the broiler house and on broiler performance. The first experiment was conducted to determine the...

Comparison between wood fiber pellets and wood shavings as broiler litter

Creator:: Modhish, Abdulmalek M.
Abstract:: Physical and chemical properties of wood (W) fiber (F) pellets (P) and wood (W) shavings(S) were determined in the laboratory prior to their use. Laboratory results showed that WS were superior to WFP except for moisture holding capacity on volume basis which is one of the most essential properties of...

Microprocessor control and numerical model for broiler house summer ventilation utilizing a rockbed heat sink

Creator:: Chen, Chaur-Fong
Abstract:: Summer brooding often requires some form of air modification in addition to maximizing ventilation rate to prevent animal heat stress and possible death due to hyperthermia. A rockbed thermal storage module was designed and constructed to provide sensibly cooled air for a broiler space under summer brooding conditions. A mathematical...

Chopped Willamette Valley grass seed straw as alternative litter for broiler production

Creator:: Nakaue, Harry Sadao, 1932-, Hermes, J. C., and Oregon State University. Agricultural Experiment Station
Abstract:: Four experiments were conducted during spring, late fall, and winter seasons using commercial broilers to investigate the suitability of different types of chopped Willamette Valley grass seed straw as litter for broiler production. Chopped annual rye grass straw and pelleted rye grass straw are more suitable litter than chopped rye...

Comparison of broiler performance and economics in conventional and light-tight floor pen houses with continuous and intermittent light programs

Creator:: Feltmann, Allen John, Nakaue, Harry Sadao, 1932-, and Oregon State University. Agricultural Experiment Station
Abstract:: Broilers grown in a conventional-type house under natural lighting with intermittent lighting at night were compared to continuous (24-hour) lighting in two experiments. Broiler growth and feed conversion at seven weeks were not affected by treatments in either experiment. Economic evaluation of the different treatments showed savings ranging from 2.43...

Reproductive performance of broiler breeders maintained in cages or on floors through 59 weeks of age

Creator:: Fuquay, Janice Irene
Abstract:: Semen characteristics and egg production of male and female commercial broiler breeders maintained in cages or on litter floors were evaluated over a 24-week period. Semen was collected from males caged singly or in pairs on a schedule of 3, 5, and 10 times (3X, 5X, and 10X) weekly from...
