Abstract

We evaluated the effects of dietary CARUM COPTICUM ESSENTIAL OIL (CCEO) on growth PERFORMANCE, carcass characteristics and INTESTINAL MICROFLORA of BROILER chickens. A total of 240 Cobb BROILER chickens were allocated to five dietary treatments, each with four replicates of 12 birds. Dietary treatments were prepared by formulating a corn-soybean meal-based diet free of antibiotics (Control) and supplementing the basal diet with three levels of CCEO at 150, 250, 350 mg/kg or antibiotic Virginiamycin at 200 mg/kg. Treatments were fed from 0 to 42 d of age. Body weight gain decreased linearly (P=0.035) with increasing CCEO while Virginiamycin increased body weight gain at 1 to 10 d compared to the control treatment (P<0.05). Though feed consumption was not affected by CCEO, CCEO insignificantly improved feed conversion ratio (FCR) (P>0.05). There were no differences in carcass characteristics among BROILER chickens fed the control, CCEO and Virginiamycin diets (P>0.05). Lactic acid bacteria in the cecum and ileum at 42 d of age were not influenced by the treatments (P>0.05) but there was a linear increase of the log numbers of E. coli in the ileum (P=0.02) with increasing CCEO (P<0.05). In conclusion, supplementing CCEO to diet at 150 mg/kg improve the growth PERFORMANCE, decrease undesirable intestinal bacteria in BROILER chickens and is an adequate alternative to antibiotics.
