ABSTRACT
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of different
inclusion levels of Nigella sativa meal (NSM) on growth performance, carcass
yield and blood lipid profile of 300 unsexed one-week old Japanese quails.
The experimental diets contained four levels of NSM replacing 0 (control), 20,
30 and 40% of soyabean meal (SBM) in growing Japanese quail diets. Live
body weight was linearly (P = 0.017) and quadratically (P = 0.024) increased
at week 3 of age and only quadratically (P > 0.001) at week 6 of age due
to 30% SBM substitution. Birds fed diets with 20 and 30% SBM replaced by
NSM consumed more feed in comparison with other animals during 3-6 and
1-6 week of age. The substitution of 20% SBM for the same percent of NSM
resulted in a significant (P < 0.001) linear increase in both dressing and carcass
percentages in comparison with the control and other treatment groups, giblets
yield was also significantly (linearly P = 0.011 and quadratically P = 0.021)
affected. A gradual reduction in serum total lipids, total cholesterol and
HDL-cholesterol was observed along with the increasing level of NSM in the
diet, except HDL which was elevated when 40% of SBM was replaced. It could
be concluded that NSM could partially replace SBM up to 30% in growing
Japanese quail diets without any harmful hazards regarding performance,
feed utilization and carcass traits. Moreover, the blood lipid parameters are
decreased with increasing NSM content in the diet.
