Hi All,<br>All i have on oranges is from the wood;<br><b><br>The Effect of Using Citrus Wood Charcoal in Broiler Rations on the
Performance of Broilers</b><br>Abstract<br>This study was conducted to
investigate the effect of feeding citrus wood charcoal on the
performance, feed intake and feed conversion efficiency of broiler
chicks. A total of 120 broilers of Habbard strain at 22 days of age were
used in the experiment and were divided into four groups of 30 birds in
each. Each group was divided into five replicates with six chicks per
replicate. Birds in the experimental groups were fed citrus wood
charcoal at rates of 0, 2,4 and 8% of the ration DM in replacement of
yellow corn. The results showed that inclusion of citrus wood charcoal
at rate of 2% had an effect on body weight gain, feed intake and feed
conversion efficiency. The results indicated that the effect of citrus
charcoal is an age dependent as it had no effect at ages of more than 29
days. However, inclusion of citrus wood charcoal increased birds
abdomen fat.<br>
