Keywords:
Cobb-500, cross, meat productivity, live weight, slaughter weight, slaughter yield.Abstract
This study investigates the meat productivity of "Cobb-500" cross broiler chickens reared on diets supplemented with varying levels of silkworm pupae (Group I – 0%, Group II – 5%, Group III – 10%, and Group IV – 15%). Based on the experimental findings, corresponding conclusions on slaughter yield and live weight dynamics have been formulated.
