Abstract

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of VITAMIN C on LAYING HENS PERFORMANCE, EGG CHARACTERISTICS and some BLOOD PARAMETERS under normal rearing condition. One hundred and ninety two 24 -weeks-old laying hens diet were used in a completely randomized design with 4 treatments (0, 250, 500 and 750 mg VITAMIN C/kg diet) and 4 replicates for 105 days. Although feed consumption, feed conversion ratio and hen–day egg production were similar among treatments (P>0.05), final body weight was significantly increased (P<0.01) with 250 and 750 mg VITAMIN C/kg diet. Albumen index and Hough unit (HU) were greater in groups fed 750 mg VITAMIN C/kg diet (P<0.05). In addition increasing yolk height and yolk index were found in diet supplemented with 500 mg VITAMIN C/kg diet (P<0.05). In terms of BLOOD PARAMETERS no significant differences were observed in blood glucose and calcium concentration between groups. However the plasma uric acid decreased by 250 mg VITAMIN C/kg diet (P<0.05). Results of this study showed that VITAMIN C increased body weight and improved albumen and yolk quality and decreased plasma uric acid in laying hens.
