4. | Description | Abstract | This study was conducted to explore the growth promoting potentials of indigenous drugs viz., Glycyrrhiza glabra, Phyllanthus niruri and Aloe vera. A total of seventy two straight run 1-day old broiler chicks (Cobb strain) were randomly allotted to 4 treatments with 3 replications of set 6 chicks in each. Treatments were included of control (T1) and the inclusion of 1% of Glycyrrhiza glabra (T2), Phyllanthus niruri (T3) and Aloe vera (T4) with basal diet. The results indicated that T3 had a significantly higher body weight followed by T4 and T2. A. vera supplementation increased the feed intake significantly than other groups. Feed conversion efficiency was significantly higher with T3 followed by T4 and T2. It is concluded that P. niruri and A. vera can be used as growth promoters at 1% level in feed. |
