In animals, including humans, free access to high-quality (generally energy-dense) food can
result in obesity, leading to physiological and health problems. Consequently, various …

The effect of early feed restriction on metabolic programming and compensatory growth was
studied in broiler chickens. A total of 480 female 1-d-old broiler birds (Aconred) were …

A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of combined Shiitake mushroom (Lentinus
edodes) extract with probiotics (PrimaLac) on the growth and health of broiler chickens. In …

Under current practices, broiler parent stock (broiler breeders) encounter several welfare
problems, such as feed restriction and injury during mating. Intensive selection for …

This study was to assess the impact of permanent or temporary restricted feeding on laying
hen production traits, physiology, and egg quality. Two hundred and forty individually …

To ensure reproductivity and prevent obesity, broiler breeder's growth rate is controlled by
quantitative feed restriction. However, feed restriction is associated with chronic hunger …

Meat chicken (broiler) breeders are exposed to many stressors, and arguably the most
severe are feed restrictions during rearing and aggression during production. Chronic stress …

With a view to alleviate the feeling of hunger in broiler breeders, different types of fibre
sources were used in high-fibre diets to increase feed quantity while limiting growth to …

As one of the 3 main short-chain fatty acids, the role of propionate in chicken fat metabolism
is largely unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that dietary supplementation of coated …

The contribution of dietary fibre in feed ingredients is still inadequately accounted for during
feed formulation, despite extensive evidence of its impact on bird performance, litter quality …
