ThesisItem Open Access COMPARATIVE STUDIES ON THE EGG QUALITY TRAITS OF WHITE LEGHORN, AUSTRO RED AND KALINGA BROWN BREEDS OF CHICKEN(Chhattisgarh Kamdhenu Vishwavidyalaya, Durg (C.G.), 2008) NEGI, PRITI; Das, K.Egg quality is an important factor which affects the consumer preference and economic returns from laying birds. Egg quality has been defined by Stadelman (1977) as the characteristics of an egg that affect its acceptability to the consumer. The appearance of the eggs as influenced by severity of defects is important for consumer appeal (Jacqueline et al., 2000). Egg quality is the more important price contributing factor in table and hatching eggs (Monira et al., 2003). Therefore, the economic success of a laying flock solely depends on the total number of quality eggs produced. Quality of chicken eggs may vary according to breed/strains, rearing temperature, relative humidity, season, nutrition and management effects on egg quality. The present study was undertaken to assess the egg quality characteristics of three breeds namely White Leghorn, Austro Red and Kalinga Brown in two different seasons namely summer and rainy season. The breeds were maintained at Government Poultry Farm, Durg (C.G.) in deep litter system which were of same age group that is 30-35 weeks. More than fifty eggs from each breed were studied to estimate the egg quality traits. The overall mean of egg weight, egg volume, shape index, yolk index, albumen index, Haugh Unit, yolk weight, albumen weight, shell weight, shell thickness, shell weight per unit surface area, shell percentage, yolk percentage and albumen percentage ignoring breed and season were 51.81±0.28g; 47.49±0.32; 76.52±0.20; 0.449±2.49; 0.054±0.67; 73.70±0.41; 14.51±0.12g; 31.11±0.21g; 5.69±0.04g; 0.31±0.002mm; 0.101±0.002g/sqcm; 10.99±0.06; 28.62±0.16; and 60.38±0.20 respectively. In White Leghorn and Austro Red shape index, albumen index, Haugh Unit and shell thickness were highest. Egg weight and egg volume were highest for Kalinga Brown. Yolk percentage was highest in Austro Red and Kalinga Brown whereas low in White Leghorn. Practically there were no differences among breeds for egg weight, yolk index, albumen weight, shell weight, shell weight per unit surface area, shell percentage and albumen percentage. Egg weight, albumen index, Haugh Unit, yolk weight, albumen weight, shell weight, shell percentage and yolk percentage were higher in rainy season and the reverse trend was observed for shell thickness and albumen percentage in summer season. No significant differences between the seasons with regard to shape index was observed. Highest incidence of blood spots were observed in Austro Red as compared to Kalinga Brown in both season whereas no blood spots were found in White Leghorn in two different seasons. Correlations are of the interest to the breeder since they permit prediction of direction and magnitude of change in the dependent traits as a correlated response to direct selection for the principle trait. If the genetic association of any trait that can be easily measured is established with other internal egg quality traits then it can be chosen as an established selection criterion for improving the internal egg quality. The correlation of egg weight and egg volume with yolk weight, albumen weight and shell weight were positive while negative with shell thickness, shell percentage, yolk percentage, albumen percentage and shape index in all the three breeds. Albumen index was positively correlated with Haugh Unit while Haugh Unit negatively correlated with shell thickness and albumen percentage.ThesisItem Open Access DEVELOPMENT OF DAIRY FARM MANAGEMENT INDEX (DFMI)(Dau Shri Vasudev Chandrakar Kamdhenu Vishwavidyalaya, 2021) DUBEY, ASHUTOSH; Santra, Dr. A.K.ThesisItem Open Access EFFECT OF BEAK TRIMMING ON GROWTH PERFORMANCE AND COST-ECONOMICS IN KADAKNATH CHICKENS(Dau Shri Vasudev Chandrakar Kamdhenu Vishwavidyalaya, 2020) VERMA, UPASANA; Dinani, Dr. Om PrakashThesisItem Open Access EFFECT OF BODY CONDITION SCORE ON EARLY LACTATION PERFORMANCE IN SAHIWAL COWS(CHHATTISGARH KAMDHENU VISHWAVIDYALAYA, DURG, 2017) Shekhar, Amit; Khune, Dr. V.N.ThesisItem Open Access EFFECT OF FEEDING AZOLLA MEAL ON GROWTH AND HAEMATO BIOCHEMICAL PARAMETERS OF SAHIWAL HEIFERS(Dau Shri Vasudev Chandrakar Kamdhenu Vishwavidyalaya Durg, 2018-08) Mishra, Sonam; Khune, Dr. V.N.ThesisItem Open Access EFFECT OF Moringa oleifera LEAF MEAL ON THE PERFORMANCE OF JAPANESE QUAILS (Coturnix coturnix japonica)(Dau Shri Vasudev Chandrakar Kamdhenu Vishwavidyalaya, 2021) YADAV, AAYUSH; Santra, Dr. A.K.ThesisItem Open Access EFFECT OF Moringa oleifera LEAF MEAL ON THE PERFORMANCE OF JAPANESE QUAILS (Coturnix coturnix japonica)(Dau Shri Vasudev Chandrakar Kamdhenu Vishwavidyalaya, 2021) YADAV, AAYUSH; Santra, Dr. A.K.ThesisItem Open Access EFFECT OF Moringa oleifera LEAF MEAL ON THE PERFORMANCE OF JAPANESE QUAILS (Coturnix coturnix japonica)(Dau Shri Vasudev Chandrakar Kamdhenu Vishwavidyalaya, 2021) YADAV, AAYUSH; Santra, Dr. A.K.ThesisItem Open Access EVALUATION OF CAJANUS INDICUS LEAVES AS ALTERNATIVE TO ANTIBIOTIC GROWTH PROMOTER IN BROILER BIRDS(Chhattisgarh Kamdhenu Vishwavidyalaya, 2014) JYOTI, SAHU; Koley, K MThe present study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of supplementation of 1.5% Cajanus indicus leaf powder in the diet of Vencobb broiler birds on growth performance, organ morphometrics, haemato–biochemical profile and immunological responses. Initially, the acute oral toxicity of Cajanus indicus leaf powder was studied in female rats by using limit test with upper limit dose of 2000 mg/kg, p.o. The acute toxicity study revealed that the oral LD50 of the compound is above 2000 mg/kg. In this experiment, a total of 126 day old broiler chicks were used. For growth performance and haemato-biochemical studies, 90 day-old broiler chicks individually weighed and were randomly assigned to three treatment groups. Each group containing 3 replicates with 10 chicks each. The rest of the 36 day-old broiler chicks were individually identified by using leg bands and used for immunological studies. For cell mediated immunity study 18 chicks were divided into 3 treatment groups of 6 chicks each. Similarly, for humoral immunity study 18 chicks were divided into 3 treatment groups of 6 chicks each. Broiler birds of control group were fed basal diet only, standard group received basal feed supplemented with Bacitracin methylene disalicyclate @ 0.05%, while chicks of test group were fed basal feed supplemented with Cajanus indicus leaf powder @ 1.5%. All chicks were fed ad libitum with the respective ration for 42 days. The chicks were reared under deep litter system of housing and standard feeding and management practices. The weekly live weight, live weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion ratio of each bird of different groups were calculated upto 6th week. The immune response of different groups were also determined by DNFB skin sensitization test (CMI) and HA test (Humoral immunity). Organ morphometrics of experimental birds and sensory evaluation of broiler meat of different groups were performed on day 42 after sacrificing 6 birds of each group. The study showed that from third week onwards up to sixth week the live weight of birds of test group was significantly (p<0.05) higher than control and standard group. At the end of sixth week, the birds of test group attained highest live weight (1927.43 g) followed by standard group (1752.83g) and control group (1612.57g). The overall live weight gain of test (1875.57g) and standard group (1700.3g) was significantly higher as compared to control (1559.63g) group. In the sixth week, there is no significant difference in cumulative feed intake of the three groups. In sixth week, the FCR of standard (2.45) and test group (2.2) was lower than the control (3.08) group. The dressing percentage was highest in test group (75.92%) followed by standard group (73.20%) and control group (68.72%). Haematological studies revealed that the dietary supplementation of CLP (1.5%) in broiler birds caused significant (P<0.05) increase in haemoglobin concentration, PCV, TEC and TLC values as compared to control group. Test group showed non significant increase in blood glucose as compared to control group. Significant reduction in serum cholesterol, ALT, AST, ALP and creatinine was found in the test group than standard group. Supplementation of Cajanus indicus leaf powder in feed had significantly improved immunological response viz., serum HA titers against sheep RBC and skin thickness against DNFB. There was significant (P<0.01) increase in organ weight factor of thymus and liver in test group as compared to control and standard group. There was non-significant (P<0.05) decrease in organ weight factor of gizzard and proventriculus in test group as compared to control group. Dietary supplementation of Cajanus indicus leaf had improved the juiciness, tenderness and acceptance of meat of broiler birds. The results of this study showed that CLP (1.5%) supplementation to broiler diets had desirable effects on growth performance, hemato- biochemical profiles, immunological response, organo morphometrics and sensory evaluation of broiler meat. Therefore, supplementation of CLP @ 1.5% in broiler feed may be beneficial for improving broiler performance and gives an indication that they could be used to replace antibiotic growth promoters simultaneously avoiding the development of drug resistance associated with the use of antibiotic growth promoter in broilers.ThesisItem Open Access FACTORS AFFECTING MAJOR MILK COMPONENTS, PHYSICO-CHEMICAL PROPERTIES AND SOMATIC CELL COUNTS IN JERSEY CROSSBRED COWS(CHHATTISGARH KAMDHENU VISHWAVIDYALAYA, DURG, 2018) BARA, SWARNALATA; Chourasia, Dr. S.K.ThesisItem Open Access PHENOTYPIC CHARACTERIZATION AND PRODUCTION PERFORMANCE OF MUSCOVY DUCK (NAG-HANS) MAINTAINED UNDER INTENSIVE AND FREE RANGE PRODUCTION SYSTEMS OF CHHATTISGARH(CHHATTISGARH KAMDHENU VISHWAVIDYALAYA, DURG, 2007) Baghel, Lalit Kumar; Santra, Dr. A.K.ThesisItem Open Access PHENOTYPIC CHARACTERIZATION AND PRODUCTION PERFORMANCE OF MUSCOVY DUCK (NAG-HANS) MAINTAINED UNDER INTENSIVE AND FREE RANGE PRODUCTION SYSTEMS OF CHHATTISGARH(Chhattisgarh Kamdhenu Vishwavidyalaya, 2007) Baghel, Lalit Kumar; Santra, A.K.A study was conducted during 2006-07 with Muscovy duck population in different studied areas. The phenotypic colour of head showed seven colour patterns with dominated Black colour. The throat colour was observed as White, Brown White and Black White etc. The Pink White black, Pink Black and alternate Pink Black colours bills were recorded. The highest frequency (79%) of Pink colour skin was observed. The colour of shank pattern of Muscovy ducks showed four definite colour patterns at all the places under study. The present investigation with regard to eye colour showed only two colour patterns of the eye in case of Muscovy duck. All the studied Muscovy population had well developed knobs. The females were devoid of knobs. The mean length of neck and breast width were measured as 3.78±0.08 and 5.18±0.05 inches respectively. The average mean length of keel bone was recorded as 5.47±0.06 inches. The overall mean length of thigh was observed as 5.15±0.4 inches. The overall egg weight was found to be 62.66 g. Anjora flock has highest mean egg weight (66.61g) followed by 60.26 g in Jagdalpur farm. The highest egg length was recorded in Anjora farm followed by Jagdalpur farm with overall mean length 5.98 cm. The overall mean width of eggs was observed as 3.93 cm. The overall mean shape index of egg was recorded as 66.32 per cent. There are four different colours namely pale white, reddish white, dusty white and bluish white colours were observed. However, pale white colours were found to be more in numbers. Similarly premonsoon season experienced with highest laying followed by monsoon, summer and winter. Regarding system of rearing, 72.5 per cent farmers reared Muscovy ducks under free range system whereas 27.5 per cent farmers reared under semi-intensive ducks. Most of the laying was completed either in early morning or in night hours. Maximum body weight gain (765.41g) was observed for 60-75 days time with an average gain per day of 51.02 g. Birds consumed about 2.53 kg feed during these periods. The feed conversion efficiency was found to be 1:2.85 in the entire study period. Muscovy ducks were apparently found to be more resistant to diseases.ThesisItem Open Access PREDICTING BODY WEIGHT FROM BODY MEASUREMENTS IN ADULT FEMALE SAHIWAL CATTLE(CHHATTISGARH KAMDHENU VISHWAVIDYALAYA, DURG, 2015) Sahu, Sambhuti Shankar; Chourasia, Dr. S.K.ThesisItem Open Access PRODUCTION OF INVITRO MATURED CAPRINE OOCYTES HARVESTED FROM ABATTOIR OVARIES(CHHATTISGARH KAMDHENU VISHWAVIDYALAYA, DURG, 2004) Bhandekar, Sunil Kumar; Nema, Dr. R.K.ThesisItem Open Access RELATIONSHIP OF BODY WEIGHT WITH LINER BODY MEASUREMENTS IN GROWING SAHIWAL COWS(CHHATTISGARH KAMDHENU VISHWAVIDYALAYA, DURG, 2015) Bhagat, Vandana; Khune, Dr. V.N.ThesisItem Open Access ROSTRAL TEETH DEVELOPMENT AND ITS RELATION TO AGE IN CROSSBRED CATTLE AND BAFFALOES(CHHATTISGARH KAMDHENU VISHWAVIDYALAYA, DURG, 2001) Jaiswal, Nishma; Chourasia, Dr. S.K.ThesisItem Open Access ROSTRAL TEETH DEVELOPMENT AND ITS RELATION TO AGE IN SAHIWAL AND GIR CATTLE(CHHATTISGARH KAMDHENU VISHWAVIDYALAYA, DURG, 2003) Gadpayle, Rajkumar; Chourasia, Dr. S.K.ThesisItem Open Access STUDIES OF FACTORS INFLUENCING MILK COMPOSITION IN KOSALI COWS(CHHATTISGARH KAMDHENU VISHWAVIDYALAYA, DURG, 2014) Sahu, Jyoti; Bhonsle, Dr. Dhirendra
