Dietary effect of Moringa oleifera on native laying hens’ egg quality, cholesterol and fatty-acid profile
This study examined the effects of dietary incorporation of Moringa oleifera leaf (MOL) meal in the diet of native laying chickens on the quality, yolk cholesterol and fatty-acid profile of eggs. One hundred twenty-eight birds were split into four dietary groups, with 32 birds in each group, compris...
