Interesting the level of added SALT. Corn grain is low on sodium Na, but not wheat.Usually corn is sheaper than wheat, but wheat is highly digested. The state of Sonora Mexico usually has availabe wheat for feed rations. Not this year.

@Dr. Sudheer May be YES, any published reference to share? Specially for Mexico and Latinamerica countries where high heat temperature is a limited factor.When there is heat broilers will skip noon meals and will keep eating late in the evening. But over lighting at night it is also another canibalistic problem.

In turkeys, the use of high density energy diet so it is not easy to get a firm pellet. Boney is right to search for new feeding responses in this turkey´s genetic stirpes. I have seen Dr. Boney web seminars at Penn St Univ and wishing to attend more technical updates.

@Peter Williams This is a contributing point of view that involves lots of technologies and management practices in between waste to viable protein such fermentation, fungus digestion of hard substances, use of heat, enzymes, etc before feeding the insects.

@Hiren Pancholi I almost agree in your comment, but never supplemented minerals trough water, perhaps electrolytes but not K,P. At some extent CaCO2 dissolved naturally in drinking water.

INSECT COMMERCIAL PRODUCTION FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION is a developing industry with new brands in the market 2025 and other closures without rentability 2024-2025. Soybean meal and other protein sources have low international prices.But any way they keep coming up with new installations, technology and strategies to improve management practices. It has been an early valuable learning process.There ar ...

Do you mean that Creatinine is in high content in raw fish, meat and therefore a CEVICHE meal could improve healthy performance?

@Dr Kotaiah Talapaneni Broilers without feed for 6 hours or more will get hungry, then at the moment they get access to feed will overfill their CROP to maximum expansion, to the size of a tennis ball.They will eat as much to fullfill their bag capacity in order to have plenty of available feed for a longer period of time.

This was a great work and reminds me back to school early in the 80's when this kind of basic research were implemented by Duke's physiology book.It is good to update this kind of research and check for genetic changes in behavioral patterns.
