Study of Body Measurements and Slaughter Characteristics in Japanese quail as Influenced by Age abstract
The study was conducted at Avian Research and Training Centre, UVAS Lahore, Pakistan in order to quantify changes in body measurements and slaughter characteristics as a response to aging (3rd, 4th and 5th week) respectively. For this purpose seventy two birds were slaughtered each week. The analysis of data through one way ANOVA in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) and the comparison of means using Least Significant Difference (LSD) test, with the help of SAS 9.1 showed significant increase in body, keel, drum stick, shank and length of intestine as well as drumstick and shank circumference with the advancement in age. Heart and intestinal weight percentage to that of the live weight also increased with the age showing the highest values for 5th week and the lowest for 3rd week while liver, gizzard and giblets weight percentage decreased significantly.
