Dimo Penkov, Matina Nikolova
Резюме: An investigation with 30 sexually mature Pearly grey guinea fowls – local population, reared on
deep litter, under natural conditions, at a sexual ratio of 1:4 (3 males and 12 females) was carried out. The aim was to establish the influence of dry extract of Tribulus terrestris (Vemo, 99 Ltd, Sofia®) on the fodder consumption and feed/egg conversion ratio. The daily consumption of the bio-additive in dose 10 mg/kg live weight for 12-week’s period decreased the feed/egg conversion ratio, so as the differences were statistical significant after the 6-th week from the beginning of the additive consumption.
