Effect of diets containing fermented fish waste on growth performance and carcass characteristics of broiler chickens

This experiment was conducted to study the effect of using diets containing fermented fish waste on growth performance and carcass characteristics of broiler chickens. A total of 240 male Cobb 500 broilers were allocated into 5 treatments with 4 replicates (12 chickens in each replicate) using a completely randomized design. Experimental treatments contained 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12% fermented fish waste replaced by soybean meal in diets. Results showed that 1-10 days weight gain in chickens fed diets containing 9 and 12 percentage of fermented fish waste was more than chickens fed control diet (P
