Abstract

An experiment was conduct to study the effect of restricted feeding on some physiological parameters (hematological dan biochemical) of quail hens. The research was an experimental observation applying Nested Complete Randomized Design using 300 fourteen days old quails. The quails maintained under two feeding restriction programs feeding allotted to 2 dietary regimes, basic on Metabolizable Energy (ME) R1= 2900 kcal/kg; R2 = 2800 kcal/kg and quantitative restricted feeding; P0 = 100% of ad libitum; P1 = 90% of ad libitum and P2 = 80% of ad libitum (n= 300). Each group (n= 50) has five replicates containing 10 birds each. Restricted feeding treatment was applied for fourteen days old quail until its sexual maturity. Physiological parameters were determined at sexual maturity. The results of experiment indicate that the restricted feeding consequently significant influenced (P<0,05) increasing leukocytes but not influence on erythrocytes and decreasing triiodothyronine. Glucose, total cholesterol and triglycerides decrease significantly (p<0.01). We conclude that feed restriction programs may have some economic benefits with some health hazard through decreasing blood glucose, cholesterol levels, and triglyceride values according to the intensity of feed restriction regimen.
