Abstract

This study aimed at evaluating the effects of a molting diet method in molt induction and post-molt performance of laying hens. Eighty-one ISA Brown hens at 62 wk of age were randomly divided into three groups. After a 4-wk preliminary period, a control group was fed a corn-soybean-based layer diet, and for the other groups, molting was induced by starvation (MS) or feeding a molting diet (MD). For the MS group, feed was withdrawn for 2 wk; this was followed by feeding a layer diet every other day for 1 wk and then the control diet. The MD group was fed a molting diet containing low-protein and low-energy diet based for 4 wk; this was followed by feeding a layer diet. They had a free access to their diet and water. Egg production, egg quality, feed intake, and ovary and oviduct weights were measured throughout the experimental period. During molting, the feed intake in the MD group was lower than that of the control. Body weight of the molted groups was significantly reduced. The MS group feeding totally ceased egg production within 4d; after the initiation of feeding and decreased; in the MD group, egg production to 9.3% by d 10. On d 14, the ovaries and oviducts of the molted groups were distinctly lighter than those of the control. Throughout the post-molt period, egg production and egg shell thickness of the molted group improved; but there were no significant differences. Eggs from the MD-fed or control group were heavier than those of the MS-fed or control group. Finally, feeding of a low-protein and low-energy diet effectively induces molting and increase post-molt production, but further research will be conducted to determine the effects of the molt diet with other ingredients and to reduce the energy level of the molt diet for maximizing molt induction and post-molt egg quality.

본 연구는 산란계의 환우 유도와 환우 후의 생산성에 대한 환우용 사료의 영향을 평가하기 위해 수행하였다. ISA Brown 81수(62주령)를 무작위로 세 처리구(2개의 환우 시험구와 1 개의 대조구)로 분류하였다. 시험 개시 4주 동안은 적응 기간으로 하였으며, 대조구는 시험 기간 동안 옥수수-대두박 위주의 기초 사료를 자유 섭취하였다. 환우 처리구는 절식에 의한 처리구(절식 환우구)와 급여에 의한 처리구(급이 환우구)로 구분하였다. 환우구는 2주 동안 절식시킨 후, 1주 동안은 산란계 기초 사료로 대체한 다음 자유 급여하였다. 급이 환우구는 옥수수, 소맥피, 단백피 위주의 저단백질, 저에너지(CP 13.2%, ME 2,196 kal/kg) 사료를 4주 동안 급여한 후, 산란계 기초 사료를 자유 섭취하였다. 시험 기간 동안, 산란율, 계란품질, 사료 섭취량, 난포 수란관의 무게가 측정되었다. 환우기간 동안에 급이 환우구의 사료 섭취량은 대조구에 비해 낮았으며, 체중은 환우 처리구에서 대조구에 비해 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다. 산란율은 절식 환우구에서는 4일까지 0%로 감소하였으나, 급이 환우구에서는 10일까지 9.3%로 감소하였다. 환우 14일째, 환우 처리구의 난포 수란관의 무게는 대조구보다 낮게 나타났다. 환우 후, 환우 처리구의 산란율과 난가 두께가 향상되었으나, 처리구간에 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 급이 환우구의 난중은 절식 환우구의 난중보다 무겁게 나타났다. 결론적으로, 저단백질 저에너지 사료가 환우 유도와 환우 후의 생산성을 효과적으로 개선시키지만, 에너지 수준에 따른 환우용 사료에 대한 연구가 더욱 요구된다.
