One hundred and sixty-eight 11-week-old laying quails(Coturnix coturnix japonica)were fed one of the following three diets: (1) control: basal diet with no lentil(Lens culinaris L.)byproduct; (2) inclusion of 10% lentil byproduct; (3) inclusion of 20% lentil byproduct. In the recent years, colour sorting machines are used in order to separate red lentils according to their colours. The goal is to select the items which are discoloured, not as ripe as required, or still with hull even after dehulling of lentil seed. During the sorting, a new byproduct called “sorting byproduct” leftover is obtained. The byproduct is cleaner and is of a higher quality than other lentil byproducts. This experiment was conducted to study the effects of the inclusion of different levels of lentil byproduct on laying quail performance. The experimental treatment included 10% or 20% lentil byproduct in the diet, and this was fed to quails aged between 11 and 22 weeks. The inclusion of 10% and 20% levels of lentil byproduct in the diet significantly increased egg production, but feed intake and feed conversion ratio were not significantly affected. Egg weight decreased significantly following the inclusion of 20% lentil byproduct. The inclusion of lentil byproduct in the diet increased the deposition of yellow yolk pigments and decreased malonaldehyde formation in the yolk.

This study aimed to evaluate the administration of Lactobacillus plantarum AKK-30 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae B-18 as probiotics in reducing cholesterol of blood, egg, and meat and also the production performance of laying quail (Coturnix coturnix Japonica). A number of 600 birds of the twenty one-day-old quails were distributed in a completely randomized design with 5 treatments and 6 replications (initial BW= 101.35 ± 1.64 g). Treatments were as follows: A = negative control (basal diet without probiotic), B = 1% of L. plantarum AKK-30 (107 cfu/g), C = 1% of S. cerevisiae B-18 (106 cfu/g), D = 1% of a probiotic consortium, E = positive control (commercial probiotic). Parameters observed were blood biochemistry profiles, product quality, and production performance. The results revealed that administration of 1% S. cerevisiae (C) resulted the lowest cholesterol in blood (101.75 mg/dL) and egg (9.44 mg/g) and while administration of 1% L. plantarum(B) increased meat protein and decreased fat content (P<0.05). Level of blood triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) were not different among treatments. Probiotic treatments did not affect the growth performance, quail day production (QDP), feed conversion ratio (FCR) and egg uniformity. However, probiotic increased diameter of egg yolk (P<0.05). It was concluded that administration of single probiotic L. plantarum AKK-30 or S. cerevisiae B-18 improves the quality of laying quail products.

ABSTRAK. Untuk mendapatkan produksi terbaik dalam pemeliharaan puyuh maka harus memperhatikan ransum yang diberikan dimana ransum yang berkualitas baik akan meningkatkan penyerapan zat makanan yang berguna untuk meningkatkan performa awal produksi seperti umur pertama bertelur, bobot badan saat pertama bertelur, bobot telur pertama dan konversi ransum yang terbaik pula. Performa awal merupakan kunci keberhasilan untuk produksi selanjutnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui performa awal bertelur pada puyuh yang bahan pakannya diganti dari tepung bawang putih menjadi bawang hitam. Materi yang digunakan adalah 200 ekor puyuh betina umur 3 minggu yang dipelihara sampai umur bertelur pertama. Perlakuan yang diberikan adalah penggantian tepung bawang putih dengan bawang hitam sehingga diperoleh 5 perlakuan dan 4 ulangan dimana setiap ulangan terdiri dari 10 ekor puyuh. Perlakuannya adalah P0=100% ransum komersil tanpa penambahan tepung bawang putih dan bawang hitam (kontrol), P1=100% ransum komersil+3% tepung bawang putih+0% bawang hitam, P2=100% ransum komersil+2% tepung bawang putih+1% bawang hitam, P3=100% ransum komersil+1% tepung bawang putih+2% bawang hitam, P4=100% ransum komersil +0% tepung bawang putih+3% bawang hitam. Penelitian ini didesain menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dan jika terdapat pengaruh pada perlakuan dilanjutkan dengan uji jarak Duncan. Peubah yang diamati meliputi konsumsi ransum, bobot badan dan umur saat bertelur pertama dan konversi ransum. Hasil dari penelitian menunjukkan penggantian tepung bawang putih dengan bawang hitam tidak menunjukkan pengaruh yang nyata (P0.05) terhadap konsumsi ransum, bobot badan dan umur saat bertelur pertama, dan konversi ransum puyuh. Kesimpulan yang diperoleh bahwa substitusi tepung bawang putih dengan bawang hitam sampai 3 % dalam ransum belum dapat memperbaiki performa awal produksi telur pada puyuh. (Substitution garlic with black garlic in the ration on early egg production of layer quail (Coturnix - coturnix japonica)) ABSTRACT. Quail production depends on the feed and feeding where feed quality will increase quail ability to digest and absorb the nutrients, thus, will improve the performance of early egg production, body weight at first egg laid, egg weight and feed conversion. The performance of early egg production is key to success and subsequent determinant of production. This study aimed to determine the performance of early egg production of quail fed ration contained garlic that was substituted by black garlic. The study used 200 female quail at 3 weeks of age and was kept until the first day of laying egg. The treatments were the substitution level of garlic with black garlic, namely P0 = 100% commercial feed without garlic and black garlic, P1 = 100% commercial feed + 3% garlic + 0% black garlic, P2 = 100% commercial feed + 2% garlic + 1% black garlic, P3 = 100% commercial feed + 1% garlic + 2% black garlic, and P4 = 100% commercial feed + 0% garlic + 3% black garlic. The research was designed into Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 5 treatments and 4 replications those 10 quails each. The parameters were feed consumption, body weight and age at the first day of laying egg, and feed conversion. Data were analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the significant effect of the treatment would be tested using Duncan’s Multiple Range Test. Results of this study showed that there was not significant different (P0.05) among treatment groups on feed consumption, body weight and age at the first day of laying egg, and feed conversion. It is concluded that using black garlic up to 3 % or 2.91 % in ration to substitute garlic does not improve quail early egg production performance yet.

Present review was performed in order to understand the influence of photoperiod and light intensity on Coturnix japonica. Different literatures were reviewed regarding egg production, behaviour, body weight, feed intake, feed conversion ratio, carcass weight, egg quality with respect to photoperiods and intensities. It was noticed from the reviewed studies that light intensity of 80 and 20 luxes for 8 hours during growing period and 240 and 60 luxes for 16 hours during laying period results 194.85±4.46, 191.42±2.87 feed intake, 201.00±13.82, 210±15.1 weekly weight gain. The better feed conversion ratio remains (1.03) with light intensity of 80 and 20 luxes for 8 hours during growing period. Carcass weight remains as 98.33±8.33 and 99.56±5.44, dressing percentage 50.46% and 52.01%, egg production percent 50.11 and 48.81, egg length 32.15±0.54 and 32.12±0.35, egg width 24.87±0.22 and 23.75±0.31, egg weight 9±0.44 and 9±0.54, 11.2±0.73 when light intensity of 80 and 20 luxes for 8 hours during growing period and 240 and 60 luxes for 16 hours during laying period is provided. In conclusion Coturnix japonica raised on 80 luxes for 08 hours light intensity during growing period and 240 luxes for 16 hours light intensity in laying period results better FCR and feed intake in cage system. While Coturnix japonica reared with 5 luxes for 16 hours photoperiod during growing period and 15 luxes for 20 hours photoperiod in laying period demonstrate better egg production and behaviour.
