Effects of level of broiler litter in diets containing wheat straw on performance of Alpine doelings

TL;DR: In this article, a randomized design 12-week experiment was conducted to compare performance with diets based on wheat straw (WS) supplemented with different levels of broiler litter to WS supplemented with a conventional protein source or ammoniated through urea treatment (TWS).

Effect of dietary molasses on the site and extent of digestion of nutrients in sheep fed broiler litter

TL;DR: It was concluded that the addition of molasses might be advantageous when the intake of litter is restricted or when voluntary intake of littered is unacceptably low.
