Effect of Dietary Aloe vera and Yeast powder on muscle growth of broiler chicks

Abstract

The purpose of this research work was to evaluate the Aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis) and Yeast (Saccharomyces Cerevisiae)powder. A total of 72 (Arbor-Acres) day old chicks were used in this study. Four levels of anAloe vera and Yeast powder at the rate of 0.00%, 0.50% (Yeast), 0.50% (Aloe vera), and 0.50% Yeast + 0.50% Aloe vera were incorporated into the basal diet for six weeks. Feeding period for all groups was lasted for 42 days. Results revealed a significant effect of Aloe vera and Yeast powder in feeds on weight of breast, thigh, and leg (P<0.05) were significantly on feed supplemented with0.50% Yeast + 0.50% Aloe vera powder. It was concluded from this study that 0.50% Yeast + 0.50% Aloe vera powder feed supplemented has a beneficial impact on the growth of these muscle tissues.
