Influence of two plant extracts on broilers performance, digestibility, and digestive organ size

TL;DR: In the present study, both plant extracts improved the digestibility of the feeds for broilers and the effect of different additives on digestibility improved the performance slightly, but this effect was not statistically significant.

Effects of dietary fructooligosaccharide on digestive enzyme activities, intestinal microflora and morphology of male broilers

TL;DR: Two hundred forty male Avian Farms broiler chicks, 1 d of age, were randomly allocated to four treatments, each of which had five pens of 12 chicks per pen, to investigate the effects of fructooligosaccharide (FOS) on digestive enzyme activities and intestinal microflora and morphology.

The Tolerance of Growing Chickens for Dietary Zinc

TL;DR: It was found in an earlier experiment, conducted at the Lime Crest Research Laboratory, that young growing chickens tolerate as much as 778 p.p.m. of zinc (in the form of zinc oxide) added to a corn-soybean oil meal diet without their growth or efficiency of feed utilization being affected.
