Effects of Alfalfa Meal Ratio and Protein Level on egg quality of Huoyan Goose
Abstract：180 Huoyan Geese(12 weeks old) were randomly assigned to 9 dietary treatments(20 Geese per treatment) in a 3×3 factorial arrange-ment. The geese in each treatment were fed for 20d contained 10%, 20% and 30% alfalfa meal of diet each incombination with 15.83%, 14.01% and12.74% protein. The study investigated the effect of dietary alfalfa meal ratio, protein level and the interaction on egg quality of laying HuoyanGoose. The results showed egg yolk rate and Hough value were increasing with the rate of alfalfa meal increasing, and Hough value was the highestwhen alfalfa meal was 20% and protein level was 14.01%. It means alfalfa meal could improve the color of egg yolk and protein quality.
