Abstract

Quail housing applied in Indonesia still needs to be improved, especially in breeder quail cages. The housing system is an environmental factor that can affect egg production and quality. This study aimed to determine the effect of cage enrichment on the interior quality of hatching eggs of Padjadjaran parent stock quail. This study used 100 Padjadjaran parent stock quails divided into 80 female black and 20 male brown quails reared from January to March 2025 at the Quail Breeding Center, Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Universitas Padjadjaran. The study used an experimental with a completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of 4 treatments (T1 = wire ram cage, T2 = wire ram cage with litter, T3 = wire ram cage equipped with nesting facilities and synthetic grass, and T4 = wire ram cage with litter equipped with nesting facilities and synthetic grass). Each treatment was repeated five times and each repetition consisted of 5 quails (1 male and 4 females). Variables observed included albumen index, haugh unit, yolk index, egg pH. Data were analyzed by ANOVA followed by Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT). The results showed that enrichment of the cage environment did not affect on the interior quality of hatching eggs of Padjadjaran parent stock quail.

Abstract

Parent stock quails require special attention in cage management to prevent stress that may affect their productivity. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the effect of environmental enrichment in cages on egg weight, hatchability, and hatch weight of Padjadjaran parent stock quails. The research was carried out from 1 February-27 April 2025 at the Padjadjaran Quail Breeding Center, Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Padjadjaran University. The research subjects consisted of 100 Padjadjaran parent stock quails, including 80 black line females and 20 brown line males. The study was conducted experimentally using a completely randomized design (CRD) with four treatments: P1 (wire ram cage), P2 (wire ram cage with litter), P3 (wire ram cage equipped with nesting facilities and synthetic grass), and P4 (wire ram cage with litter equipped nesting facilities and synthetic grass). Each treatment was repeated five times, with each replicate consisting four females and one male. The results showed that the average egg weight 11.78 g, hatchability 74.14% and hatch weight 8.18 g. Environmental enrichment of cages using litter, nesting facilities and synthetic grass had no effect on egg weight, hatchability and hatch weight of Padjadjaran parent stock quails.

Abstract

Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) infection poses a significant challenge in intensive broiler farming, as it compromises production performance and increases treatment costs. Meanwhile, phytogenic feed additives derived from natural ingredients such as mangosteen peel are gaining attention as safer and more sustainable alternatives. Nanocapsule technology enables efficient release of active compounds, but its economic feasibility requires systematic evaluation. This study aims to assess the economic impact of using mangosteen peel extract nanocapsules as a phytogenic feed additive in broilers infected with APEC. The analysis was conducted using Income Over Feed Cost (IOFC), Break-Even Value (BEV), and sensitivity simulations based on feed price and biological performance. Results indicate that the additive improves feed efficiency and profit margins, especially under carcass-based marketing scenarios. Simulations yielded economically viable thresholds for active ingredient pricing (P_aBE and P_EFE), which vary according to efficiency levels and market conditions. This approach offers a practical framework for farmers to design adaptive, efficient, and sustainable feed formulations.

Abstract

Quail eggs are a highly nutritious source of animal protein at an affordable price. However, their internal quality tends to decline during storage due to physicochemical changes. Padjadjaran Quail is a local variety developed through purification and crossbreeding of brown and black strains of Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica), possessing good egg production potential and quality. Studies on the internal quality of Padjadjaran Quail Eggs during long-term storage remain limited. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the relationship between storage duration and yolk index, albumen index, and haugh unit of Padjadjaran Quail Eggs. The research was conducted over 60 days at room temperature using 420 Padjadjaran Quail Eggs from hens in peak production phase at the Poultry Production Laboratory, Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Universitas Padjadjaran. The data were analyzed descriptively, followed by correlation and regression tests. Results showed a decrease in average yolk index from 0.44 to 0.11, albumen index from 0.12 to 0.01, and haugh unit from 90.28 to 59.56. A very strong correlation was found between storage duration and each parameter. The regression models obtained were Y = 0.327 – 0.004X (yolk index), Y = 0.108 – 0.002X (albumen index) and Y = 91.698 – 0.536X (HU).Keywords: storage duration, quail eggs, yolk index, albumen index, haugh unit
