A 12-week study was conducted at the Teaching and Research Farm of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife to evaluate the effect of dietary inclusion of LAYPLUS® (LP) on fertility and egg parameters of female Japanese quails, Coturnix coturnix japonica. Two hundred and ten birds of average weight of 167.75±3.94g were used for this study, and they were allocated randomly into seven treatment groups and replicated thrice. Group 1 served as control without inclusion of LAYPLUS®, while groups 2, 3, 4 and 5 had 250 mg/kg, 500 mg/kg, 750mg/kg and 1000mg/kg inclusion of LP and group 6 had 240mg/kg of vitamin E, respectively, and group 7 clomiphene citrate. Eggs were collected daily and egg production was calculated on a bird-day basis. The data obtained were analyzed using one-way ANOVA. There was significant increase (p<0.05) in the egg production parameters namely egg weight, egg laid per hen and percentage laying rate of LP500mg/kg compared with other groups. The highest percentage egg production was by the LP500mg/kg at 57% while the lowest was by the LP250mg/kg at 41%. There was no significant difference in the egg weight and Haugh unit among the supplemented birds and the control group. There was significant difference among the treatments in the percentage hatchability of the eggs with LP500mg/kg eggs recording the highest value of 95.68%. It can be concluded from this experiment that supplementation of the feed with LP at 500mg/kg had beneficial effect on quail production through improved effect on egg production and hatchability.

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.

SUMMARY In order to evaluate the performance and egg quality of quails on different time feeding, One hundred ninety two Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) at 24 weeks of age were distributed in a completely randomized design with two replications and twelve treatments eight birds each. The treatments consisted of two different times of feeding at 6h and 16h. The performance was evaluated by the feed intake (g/bird/day), egg production (%), egg mass (g), feed conversion per egg mass (kg/kg ), feed conversion per dozen eggs (kg/dz) and viability (%). The egg quality was evaluated by the eggshell thickness (mm), percentage of albumen, yolk percentage and average egg weight (g). The feeding time at 16h favored the performance of Japanese quails at 26 and 34 wk of age considering egg production, egg mass and average egg weight. Thus, it is recommended to feed the quails at times that coincide with the highest egg laying intensity, which ranges from 16 to 19h.
