Abstract

In this study, in order to evaluate the production, INTERNAL ORGANS and MEAT QUALITY characteristics, 225 one-day-old Japanese QUAIL were tested in a completely randomized design with 5 treatments, 3 replicates and 15 QUAIL per replicate for 35 days. The treatments were consisted of control diet and diets containing 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 % levels of thyme. The PERFORMANCE parameters i.e. feed intake, weight gain and FCR were assessed periodically. The Results revealed that diets containing 2% of thyme decreased feed intake in growth and the entire experimental periods significantly (P<0.05). Diets containing 1.5 and 2% thyme reduced weight gain compared to controls during the entire period significantly (P<0.05). Diet containing 0.5% thyme, improved FCR in the starter period significantly (P<0.05), but The FCR in the growth period and the entire period did not show significant difference (P>0.05). The relative weight of carcass and gastrointestinal tract components were not affected by treatments (P>0.05). The highest relative weight of spleen and bursa were observed in 1 and 2% of thyme diets, respectively (P<0.05). Diet containing 2% thyme reduced the relative weight of oviduct and follicles and also reduced the number of follicles and oviduct length in comparison to the control treatment (P<0.05). The meat oxidative stability was not affected by treatments in the slaughter day (P>0.05), but microbial count of meat decreased significantly with thyme powder levels in comparison to the control treatment (P<0.05). The results revealed that use of thyme in the diet of QUAIL significantly decreased feed intake and improved FCR. The growth and development of the reproductive tract components, and meat microbial count were also affected.
