Utilisation of blood, chicken offal and fish meal as cockerels' dietary supplements

An experiment was undertaken to investigate the performance of 16-20 week-old cockerels fed diets based on three oil seed cakes viz. groundnut cake (CNG), CNG/Palm kernel cake, CNG/cotton seed cake supplemented with four sources of methionine and lysine viz. synthetic sources, blood meal, fish meal...
