An experiment was conducted involving laying quails (n=120) during 22–34 weeks of age to evaluate the optimum dietary energy concentration and effect of additives (ascorbic acid and sodium bicarbonate) on egg production under heat stress. Six dietary treatments with two levels of energy (2900 kcal and 2600 kcal ME/kg) and two additives (ascorbic acid @ 300 mg/kg and sodium bicarbonate @ 1% in diet) at each energy level were formulated following 2x3 factorial design. Each dietary treatment was assigned to 20 quails caged individually. The temperature in house during the experimental period was minimum 31.1 to 37.1°C (mean 33.1±0.13°C) and maximum 33.1–40.5°C (mean 36.4±0.19°C). Overall egg production, egg-weight and feed conversion efficiency did not differ due to dietary energy levels or additive supplementation. The daily feed intake was significantly lower (P Not Available |
