Unconventional feeds for sheep: Effects on performance and meat quality and composition
AbstractThe potential of using ground cardboard boxes (CB), whole dates (WD) and dried poultry manure (DPM) in sheep diets was investigated. Chemical analysis of CB, WD and DPM indicated their potential value as feedstuffs for sheep. Bacteriological analysis showed that coliform bacteria could be appreciably reduced during processing of DPM. Three diets containing CB, WD and DPM were formulated and fed to yearling Corriedale wethers; a control diet containing conventional feed ingredients was used for comparison. Performance was significantly better in sheep fed on diets containing CB and WD than in those fed on the control diet. Animals fed on the diet containing DPM performed as well as the control group, but sheep fed completely on unconventional diets showed a significant depression in liveweight gain and feed efficiency. Other parameters measured, such as carcass quality, safety to the animals, and acceptability for consumers, revealed no adverse effects. Diets containing unconventional items were more economical than the control diet.
