Effect of dietary palm oil on growth performance and stress response of broiler chickens
Broiler chickens were reared from 14 days of age to 42 days of age to investigate the effect of the dietary palm oil (5 per cent) on the growth performance and also the stress response of the broiler chicks. Thirty unsexed commercial broilers were designed into 2 treatment with 3 replications each (...
