Dried poultry droppings (DPD) was incorporated in broiler chick diets at levels of 5, 10 and 15% as a non protein nitrogenous source in four experimental trials. Two hundred, one day old Arbor acre broiler chicks were randomly distributed into ten equal experimental groups of 20 chicks each. A control group in the first trial was fed on three diets, the starter, grower and finisher, based on corn and soybean meal and free from dried poultry droppings. In the other three trials, three groups were assigned for each. The first group in each trial was fed three phases diets containing 5, 10 and 15% DPD, while in the second group, the grower and finisher diets were both had DPD and in the third one, only the finisher diet was contained DPD. The growth performance, body weight development, weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion efficiency were assessed. The chicks appeared to be affected differently by the dietary regimens. In the first group of 5, 10 and 15% DPD test trials in which chicks fed on DPD throughout the whole experimental period, there were a reduction in the growth rate by about 8, 27 and 36 % than control respectively, consuming less amount of food and had high feed conversion indices (2.92, 3.37 & 3.21) compared with 2.66 in control group. In the second group of all trials where birds raised on DPD during growing-finishing periods, feed consumption and weight gain were less than control group. In the third group of all treatments in which DPD was limited to the finishing period, growth rate was nearly less, while more feed consumption resulting in a feed conversion indices slightly higher than the control one. Thus, It could be concluded that, the cost of poultry diets can be reduced by using DPD up till 15% of the chick diets through the finishing phase without any adverse effect under the experimental condition. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

INTRODUCTION
Pollution from poultry farms has currently become one of the most challenging environmental problems (Taiganides, 2002). The wastes associated with poultry farming have an increased significance today as people become more aware of the harmful effect of polluting the environment. Manure is by far the number one waste problem and its problems can be due to a number of different issues including disposal, odour, assoociated nuisance, and soil water and air pollution (Sims and Wolf, 1994; Henuk, 2001 and Bell, 2002). Much efforts is being made to study the possibilities of utilizing poultry wastes in the nutrition of animals including poultry (Day, 1977; Henuk and Dingle, 2002). This can lead to a reduction of traditional feed ingredients such as maize, wheat and soybeans that can be consumed by humans and considered as animal feeds (El-Boushy and Van der poel, 2000). In addition, utilizatoin of animal excreta for feed nutrients may help to alleviate pollution problems, decrease feed costs and increase the supplies of available nitrogen and essential mineral sources (Arndt et al., 1979). The composition of dried poultry droppings contains moderate total protein ranging from 19.2 to 31.08% and the wide variation in crude protein composition might be due to the duration and storage of the wet manure (Trakulachang and Ballon, 1975; El-Boushy and Van der poel, 2000). The primary deficiency in dried poultry waste is its low metabolizable energy content which has been estimated to range from 660 to 2050 kcal/Kg (Biely et al., 1972; Young and Nesheim,1972; Shannon et al., 1973; El-Boushy and Vink, 1977; Sharara et al., 1992). Dried poultry waste contains high ash 23.76- 36.40 % (Biely et al., 1972; Coon et al., 1975), significant quantities of calcium (7%) and phosphorus (2%) of high availability (Blair and Knight, 1973). Dried poultry waste after proper treatment could be used as a feedstuff because it contains undigested feed, metabolic excretory products and residues resulting from microbial synthesis. Micro-organisms in the poultry excreta convert some of the uric acid to microbial protein which can be utilized by poultry (El-Boushy and Vink, 1977). The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of different levels of poultry droppings on the performance of broiler chicks during three stages of rearing.
MATERIALS and METHODS
Experimental chicks: A total number of 200 one day old broiler chicks (Arbor Acre) obtained from a local commercial source, were used in this study at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Assiut University. The chicks were nearly of a uniform weight, averaging 55g, and randomly distributed into ten equal experimental groups, 20 chicks each. The chicks were reared on the floor in an experimental room, of ten compartments, bedded with a layer of chaffed wheat straw and provided with clean feeders and waterers. Experimental room temperature was controlled and adjusted for each age stage. All birds were systematically vaccinated against Newcastle and Gumboro diseases, and the other needed prophylactic measures were followed. Experimental design: This experiment was designed to study the addition of different levels of dried poultry dropping (DPD) as non protein nitrogenous source in broiler diets in four experimental trials. The following table showing the design which put an age consideration in feeding.
Diets and feeding: In the four main trials, a control goup in the first trial was fed on three diets, the starter, grower and finisher, based on yellow corn and vegetable oil as a source of energy, and soybean meal (SBM) and fish meal (FM) as source of protein, and free from dried poultry droppings. In the other three trials, three groups were assigned for each. The first group in each trial was fed three phases diets containing 5,10 and 15% dried poultry droppings (30.2% CP, 1925 Kcal ME/kg, 1.65% Ca & 1.45% P), while in the second group, the grower and finisher diets were both had DPD and in the third group, only the finisher diet was contained DPD. Dried poultry droppings was analysed for nutrients content following AOAC (1984) and all diets (starter, grower and finisher) were formulated to contain the metabolizable energy density and crude protein concentrations recommended by NRC (1994) as shown in tables (1, 2, & 3). Birds in all groups were fed on the starter diet for the first three weeks and on the grower diet for the second two weeks and then on the finisher diet for the last two weeks of age. The diets were fed ad-libitum and a clean water was continously available throughout the experimental period.

Growth performance: The birds were weighed individually at the beginning of the experiment and every week thereafter for 7 weeks at the growing phase. The chicks were checked twice daily and the weight of dead birds was used to adjust the average feed consumption. Feed consumption and body weight of the chicks were weekly recorded and the feed conversion efficiency was calculated for the different groups. Carcass parameters: Five randomly selected birds from each group were slaughtered at the end of the experiment for carcass parameters evaluation. Dressed carcass as the weight of the slaughtered birds after removal of feathers, head and feet but including all the offals (edible or not) was recorded. The weights of some internal organs of birds including gizzard, proventriculus, liver, spleen and heart were recorded at the end of the experiment. Processing of poultry droppings: Care was exercised in collecting the droppings of the birds to exclude extraneous materials. The droppings were collected daily on polyethelene sheets. The droppings were air dried for 24 hours at 30 - 35ºC (Kese and Dokoh, 1982), then subjected to dry heat for 2 hours in hot air oven at a temperature ranges between 102 to 105ºC (Trakulchang and Ballon, 1975). Economical evaluation: Total feed cost, total production cost, price of body weight and net revenue were calculated, economical feed efficiency and relative economical feed efficiency were calculated as follow: Net revenue Economical efficiency = ------------------------------- x 100 Total production cost
Econ. eff. of test group Relative economical feed efficiency = --------------------------------- x 100 Econ. eff. of control group
Statistical analysis: Statistical analysis of the experimental crude data was carried out according to procedures of completely random design SAS (1995).
RESULTS and DISCUSSION
The results obtained for broiler performance in terms of body weight development, feed intake, weight gain and feed conversion are presented in tables 5, 6, 7 and 8. Dressed carcass of chicks and economical evaluation are shown in tables 9 and 10. Poultry production enterprises gain is usually affected not only by the kind of diet formulation and need satisfaction but also by feed prices, shortage, and the local running qualities. To guard against any extra expenses, expensive feed substituted by others of low prices satisfying the same nutrients and qualities. Also, due to these conflicting factors, a trend is now sponsored to use the unconventional non protein nitrogen source, the poultry droppings, in order to replace part of the most expensive protein and reduce cost and pollution. The diets were mixed as control diet containing soybean meal and fish meal (trial I) or test diets containing 5, 10 and 15% dried poultry dropping (DPD) in trials II, III & IV. Mortality rate: The mortality rate was nearly normal as only 2 chicks died from the 20 chicks of the control and the groups fed on diets contain 5% DPD during growing-finishing and finishing periods. 3 chicks were died from group fed on 5% DPD during all phases, second and third groups of 10 %DPD test trial and group raised on 15% DPD during finishing only as shown in table 4. Five chicks were died in the group fed on diets contain 15% DPD during three phases, representing a rate of 25% at the fourth week of feeding pointing to adverse effect of DPD at high level. Chick performance: The broiler chicks appeared to be affected differently by the dietary regimens. There was a significant difference (p<0.05) in weight gain between the birds raised on 5% DPD and those raised on 0% DPD diet during the starting and growing phases, while it attained in the finishing a gain nearly similar to that of the control (Tables 7&8). The weight gains were significantly (p<0.05) reduced in the birds fed on diets containing 10 & 15% DPD through the three feeding phases compared with control. This might imply that at high intake of DPD growth is partially impaired. These agreed with that reported by Flegal and Zindell (1970) and Adeyemo and Oyejola (2004) who found that, the inclusion of 10&15% dried poultry waste reduced the body weight of the broilers and feed conversion was inversely related to the dried poultry waste levels in the diet. The body weight gain of the chicks raised on 10 & 15 % DPD diets in the growing and finishing periods decreased significantly (p<0.05) at these phases and the reduction was limited only during the growing period in those raised on 5% DPD. Feeding chicks on 5, 10 & 15% DPD during finishing phase had no significant effect on body weight gains in all treatments. The variability in the effect of DPD on growth rate of chicks may be ascribed to the quality of the undegraded protein in the droppings and to the extent to which the diet meets the requirement of the chicks (Oluyemi et al., 1979). Most of reports are in fairly good agreement that growing birds can tolerate 5% dried poultry waste with little or no adverse effect on growth and only a slight effect on feed conversion (El-Boushy and Vink, 1977). Lee and Blair (1972) found that the addition of dried poultry droppings to chick diets improved the growth of the chicks. At lower intake of DPD, there was no significant difference in feed intake among the groups during all the growing phases, while there was a significant difference with increase in the level of DPD in the diet. Collectively feed consumption attained to be reduced by about 14 and 9% in the first and second groups fed on diets containing 10% DPD compared with control, while the third group making a collective feed intake slightly more than that of the control group by 2%. The decreasing effect in the feed intake was prominent in the first and second groups raised on 15 % DPD (25 & 8%), while birds fed on 15% DPD only at finishing period had more feed intake than control group by about 7%. These agreed with that reported by Castro et al. (1984) who concluded that the highest inclusion of DPD caused reduction in feed consumption and feed conversion. In the first groups of 5, 10 and 15% DPD test trials in which chicks fed on DPD throughout whole experimental period, growth rates were reduced by about 8, 27 and 36% than control respectively, and the birds consumed less amount of food with high feed conversion indices (2.92, 3.37 & 3.21) compared with 2.66 raised on 0% DPD. Reduction of growth rate in DPD tested groups might be due to a depression in caloric intake of the birds (Sloan and Harms, 1973). In the second groups of all trials where birds raised on DPD during growing-finishing periods, feed consumption and weight gain were less than control group and by turn more feed conversion. In the third group of all treatments in which DPD was limited to the finishing period, growth rate was nearly less, while more feed consumption resulting in a feed conversion indices slightly higher than the control one. These agreed with that reported by Cunningham and Lillich (1975) who stated that broilers fed on diets contained high level of dried poultry waste showed lower average live weight and poorest feed conversion and they concluded that dried poultry waste may be fed to broilers at a level below 20% without serious consequence. On the contrary, Nasroedin (1977) concluded that incorporating broiler and layer wastes dried by sun or oven drying as 15% of the starter ration, increasing to 20% of the grower diet, was acceptable. Also, Olorede et al. (1995) reported that the inclusion of 7.5 & 15% dried poultry waste in broiler diet had no significant effect on body weight gain. Several workers showed that levels of DPD between 10 and 20% can be included in broiler diets with no adverse effect on performance, carcass yield and meat composition (Kese and Dokoh, 1982; Hady, 1989; Nambi et al., 1992 and Attia et al., 1993). Carcass dressing values: Feeding dried poultry droppings had no effect on the carcass dressing values as shown in table (9) as it ranged from 76.30 to 80.70%. There were no differences in the weights of the internal organs between different experimental groups and control one except for decreasing liver, heart and spleen weights in the group fed on diet containing 15% DPD during all phases. These findings are in accordance with that found by Adeyemo and Oyejola (2004) who found no significant differences in the weight of internal organs at higher intake of poultry droppings except an atrophy of the liver.
Economical evaluation: Total feed cost, total production cost, price of body weight and economical feed efficiency were calculated and presented in table (10). Feeding 5% DPD during all phases reduced economical feed efficiency by about 24.39%, while feeding DPD during growing-finishing phase and finishing only decreased economical feed efficiency by a range of 14.35% when compared with the control. In trial III, feeding 10% DPD during whole experimental period, growing-finishing period reduced the economical feed efficiency by 73.12 & 55.54%, respectively while feeding 10% during finishing period only reduced by 14.82% when compared with the control. Feeding 15% DPD (trial IV) during all phases, grower and finisher phases reduced the economical feed efficiency by 56.83 & 71.63%, respectively, while feeding during finishing period only reduced by 29.88%. It could be concluded that, the cost of poultry diets can be reduced by using DPD up till 15% of the chick diets through the finishing phase without any adverse effect under the experimental condition.
