Effect of breed and density on growth performance and carcass traits of two broiler breeds
Published: February 11, 2020
Summary
Introduction The improvement of genetic selection and management practices are increased dramatically for the last decades (Kryeziu et al., 2018), stocking density of broilers is one of the major factors that can improve performance to face the improvement of genetic selection (Simsek et al., 2011). Stocking density has a significant impact on production cost, however, excessive density may ...

Dr Basheer, congratulations to the authors for the study conducted. However, I would like to make a consideration .For the researched subject, I think it would be important to inform the environmental conditions that the birds were exposed to during the study, although general considerations were made in the conclusion. This detail also reveals the relevance of environmental conditions for this type of work.

Dear Dr. Juarez Donzele,
Thank you for your point, this is a valid point. Environmental temperature varied based on the age of the bird. Ambient house temperature was around 20 C starting at 21 days up to the end of trial.
Hopefully this helps!

Dr. Basheer Nusairat, I complement for your detailed study
But, what about breed character, the carcass yield of Ross is always more compared to other breeds provided optimal room temperatures, There is variation in FCR also, we need to consider in broiler production

Hi Dr Basheer
Great job to u and all great professors
if we using stock density more than 18 ( 20 or 22) as I know in Jordan, do you think that make significant difference with the same conditions? Did you fed birds as recommended Nutrient specifications for Ross 308 and hubberd classic? as I know each strain has different nutrients specifications
