maintenance
e amount of feed necessary for body maintenance varies with the weight of the
d the type of the environment.
growth
eghorn pullet should gain from 350 to 454 gram during her laying years.
medium- size layer (producing brown shell eggs) should gain 454 to 570 gram
ring her laying year.
production
ncludes the growing of new feathers to replace those molted or pulled out.
duction
he feed requirement for the production of the eggs is determined by the number

Poultry
With the exception of birds reared for breeding, growing poultry are
normally fed to
appetite.
Nutrient requirements expressed not as quantities required per day but as
the nutrient
concentrations in the diet .
Poultry take food according to their energy requirement.
The quantities of food eaten by poultry are inversely related to the
concentration of energy
in their diets.
If the energy concentration of a diet is increased without a corresponding
change in the
concentration of other nutrients, then the birds will begin to eat less of
those nutrients.
crease the energy content of the ration without changing the protein per cent,
will eat less amount of protein.
r take energy from the diet according to their requirement so that their energy intake may
proximately the same, their protein intake will fall and the birds may be deficient in protein.
eneral, a nutrient concentration that is adequate for a diet of low energy content may be
dequate for a diet of higher energy content.
ding standards should be expressed not only by nutrient concentrations, but also together w
cific energy concentration.
ample, for laying hen, layer ration must contains 2750 kcal ME/kg diet with 16% protein.
/CP = 2750/16 = 171.87
et 17.76 gram of protein, how many % of crude protein must contain in ration II ?
lculate ME/CP ratio for ration II.
mount of feed consumed per hen per day is 107 gram.
commanded ME/CP for laying hen is 170-175. If energy in the ration is increased,
ude protein % must be increased to maintain recommended ME/CP.

Protein in milk
Alpha-casein, beta-casean, alpha lactalbumin, beta-lactoglobulin are
predominant milk protein.
Formed from the free amino acid precursors in the blood.
Found only in the milk.
More than 90% of milk protein
The remaining protein portion contains immune globulins, serum
albumin, gamma casein,
which are not synthesized in mammary cells .
They are absorbed from the blood intact and passed to the milk.
