The influence of dietary L-carnitine and lysine (Lys)-methionine (Met) levels on productive performance, haematology and triiodothyronine hormone levels of broilers was investigated. Dietary treatments included different L-carnitine (0, 50 and 100 mg/kg) and Lys-Met (0%, 10% and 20% over National Research Council (NRC) (1994) recommendation levels), under a 3 × 3 factorial design arrangement. From the findings, the body weight (BW) gain, feed intake and feed conversion ratio (FCR) of broilers were significantly (p < 0.05) influenced by dietary treatments in the different growing stages. Conversely, carcass yield and organs did not differ (p > 0.05) among treatments, whereas meat-cuts varied significantly when broilers were fed experimental diets. Moreover, the dietary inclusion of the highest levels of amino-acids (L-carnitine (100 mg/kg) and Lys-Met (+20%)) produced a reduction (p < 0.05) of blood uric acid, also leading to the highest triiodothyronine (T3) hormone levels. Based on the obtained results, it can be concluded that the combination of extra levels of L-carnitine associated with Lys-Met positively influenced the performance traits in broiler chickens.

The objective of this study was to determine the effect off sambung nyawa (Gynura procumbens) juice in drinking water on broiler performance (feed consumption, aver-ege daily gain, feed conversion and persentasion carcass). The research is used 200 broiler Hybro strains from PT. Manggis, were allocated into 4 treatments and 5 replications consisting of 10 broiler. Maintenance of the chicken is done for 28 days. The treatment was juice sambung nyawa with each concentration : T0 (without the addition of sambung nyawa juice), T1 (addition of 10 sambung nyawa juice in 1000 ml of drinking water), T2 (addition of 20 sambung nyawa juice in 1000 ml of drinking water) and T3 (addition of 30 sambung nyawa juice in 1000 ml of drinking water). Parameters observed in this study is broiler performance (feed consumption, aver-ege daily gain, feed conversion and persentasion carcass). The result from a completely randomized design were analyzed using ANOVA (Analysis of Variance / ANOVA) and if significant difference test followed by Duncan continued. The result showed that the addition of sambung nyawa juice at different levels (10, 20 and 30 ml) in the drinking water of broilers was highly did not affect (P > 0.05) on broiler performance (feed consumption, aver-ege daily gain, feed conversion and persentasion carcass).Keyword : Sambung Nyawa Juice, Performance Broiler.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of different levels of peppermint (Mentha piperita) on broiler performance, jejunum morphology, organs percentage and serum biochemical content.  A total of 576-day old ross 308 chickens was divided randomly into 12 treatments with 4 replicates pen per treatment and 12 birds each pen. Treatments were arranged in a 2 × 6 factorial arrangement of treatments was employed. Factors were challenge, - or +; control, antibiotic, 0.5 % peppermint in feed, 1% peppermint in feed, 0.5% peppermint in water and 1% peppermint in water. The result of study was showed that the peppermint supplementation was significant effect on feed intake, feed conversion ratio and it has effect on body weight at day 24 and 35. The peppermint supplementation either in feed and water at 24 day had a significant effect on jejunum muscle thickness and villus/ crypt ratio while not effect on villus height and crypt depth. In conclusion, supplementation of peppermint has positive effect on broiler performance and gut morphology.
