Effect of Limestone Particle Size and Potassium Supplementation on Growth Performance, Blood Physiology, and Breast Muscle Myopathy of Male Broiler Chickens

FRONTIERS IN VETERINARY SCIENCE, 7.

By: D. Joardar n, K. Livingston n, F. Edens n, B. Nusairat*, R. Qudsieh n, M. Livingston n, J. Brake n

author keywords: limestone particle size; potassium; blood physiology; woody breast; white striping; broiler; performance
TL;DR: This study demonstrated that using 0.2% of K as potassium carbonate did not negatively affect FCR even though FI and BWG were reduced, and fine limestone has the potential to reduce WB in breast muscle tissues; however, further research is needed to confirm these outcomes.
