Effect of Dietary Supplemental Ginger on Broiler Performance, Carcass Characteristics and Blood Profile

A study using one hundred unsexed day-old broiler chicks (Ross 308), 25 birds/treatment was conducted to evaluate the effect of ginger powder as natural feed additives on the growth performance, carcass traits and blood parameters of broiler chickens. Four dietary treatments were formulated to meet...
