Use Triticale Grains Replacing of Corn in Broiler Chick Diets and their Effect on Some Quality Characteristics of Breast Meat
Abstract: The present study was conducted using 1120 Ross chicks to determine meat quality of partial substitution of corn with triticale grain (Feedar) one-day-old unsexed chicks were randomly distributed as a complete randomized block design into eight equal treatments, each with four replicates (35 chicks/ replicate). The chicks were reared on wood shavings in pens. The area of each pen was 3m2 (2mX1.5m). Treatments were diet 1 T1 (The control, without triticale), T2 (25 % triticale replacement of corn), T 3 (50 % triticale replacement of corn), T4 (75 % triticale replacement of corn), T5 (100 % tritical), T6 (Replacement all the energy of corn with triticale), T7 (use 100 % triticale with enzyme), T8 (Replacement all the energy of corn with triticale and enzyme). All birds were fed ad libitum on the same starting (021 d) and growing (2242 d) diets. The chicks sexed in 28 day. At 42 d of age, broilers were slaughtered and cutting the carcasses breast to estimate some quality characteristics of meat. Sensory evaluation (Tenderness, Juiciness, Flavor, Texture, Overall acceptance and General appearance) were significantly higher (P
