Chicken Farming
Research Conditions
2000 day old broiler chicks were randomly divided into 4 groups for
researching the effect of adding Ecotru™ as a food supplement for
production improvements.
Housing and food supply was maintained as per normal production
processes.

Research Conditions
2000 day old broiler chicks were randomly divided into 4 groups for
researching the effect of adding Ecotru™ as a food supplement for
production improvements.
Housing and food supply was maintained as per normal production
processes.
Research Method
4 groups of 500 chicks separated for trial purposes.
Ecotru™ added as a supplement
• Group A - No addition, control group
• Group B – 250g added per ton of food
• Group C – 500g added per ton of food
• Group D – 1000g added per ton of food
Measurements
250 chicks from each group were randomly selected for weighing on days
1, 14, 21, 28, 35, and 42.
Data also collected on chick mortality over the same period.
