ABSTRACT
Two feeding trials were conducted to evaluate growth performance, carcass characteristics,
nutrient digestibility, haematological and serum biochemical parameters of broiler chickens
fed graded levels of onion (Allium cepa) and onion with Bactofort® as eubiotics. Two
hundred and forty (240) day old Ross 308 strain broiler chicks were allotted into five
different dietary treatments with 0, 100, 200, 300 and 400g Allium cepa levels/100kg diet in
the first experiment and 0, 15, 30, 45 and 60g Bactofort® levels added to 200g Allium
cepa/100kg diet in the second experiment. Each treatment had 16 birds per pen replicated
three times in a completely randomized design. Feed and water were given ad libitum while
vaccination and other daily routine managements were duly observed throughout the
experimental period. Data collected were subjected to analysis of variance using Statistical
Analysis System and means were compared using Dunnett’s package. Results of the first
trial showed an insignificant (P>0.05) difference in performance parameters measured
during starter period. At the finisher phase, final body weight (2137.47 – 2223.25g) and
weight gain (1462.05 – 1548.10g) were significantly (P<0.05) higher in treatments receiving
Allium cepa additions compared to the control (0g Allium cepa addition level) which had
2121.53g and 1445.53g respectively while feed intake and feed conversion ratio (FCR) were
similar. Mortality was also higher in the control compared to Allium cepa treatment groups.
200g Allium cepa addition level had significantly (P<0.05) higher live weight (2191.78g),
dressed weight (1541.11g) and dressing percentage (75.16%) compared to the other
treatment groups. However, there were no significant (P>0.05) differences in all
haematological and serum biochemical indices across the treatments except for albumin,
creatinine, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase and total cholesterol. Percent
xv
apparent nutrient digestibilities were also insignificant except for crude fibre and crude
protein. Crude fibre digestibility (87.12%) was better in the treatment receiving 200g Allium
cepa
