ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to evaluate potential influences of different
dietary protein sources on performance, litter quality and health of foot pads
in broilers. In total, 160 one-day-old chickens were divided into four dietary
groups at day 8. Four different diets were prepared as follows: the level of
soyabean meal in the control diet amounted 32.5% (SBM), while in other diets
soyabean meal was partly replaced by rapeseed meal 14.5% (RSM); haemoglobin
meal 4.5% (HBM) or algae meal 4.0% (ALG). Body weight was measured
weekly. Measurement of dry matter content of litter and excreta as well as
external assessment of foot pads were performed weekly. Birds fed the RSM
diet had the highest body weight at day 44 in comparison to animals fed other
experimental diets. Broilers fed the HBM diet had the lowest body weight at the
end of the trials. Foot pad dermatitis (FPD) severity was significantly higher in
birds fed RSM and ALG diets in comparison with those fed SBM or HBM diets
at day 44 of life. In conclusion, using RSM could be the most suitable alternative
protein source due to higher body weight gains. However, further studies
are required to optimize the diet composition which could simultaneously improve
foot pad health.
