Eight Egyptian buffalo heifers were kept in tie-stall barn for four weeks then released from restraints for another four weeks after that tied them for another four weeks up to the end of experiment. Results indicated that, eating time (306.13 min/day) and rumination time (317.93 min/day) were longer in tied heifers than in free animals (178.66 and 306.40 min/day, respectively). The tied animals were acting more stressful than those free; where stepping, kicking and tail movements were more frequently in tied (27.73, 0.80and 115.93 time/day) than in free (16.13, 0.00 and 60.00 time/day respectively). Heifers did not show any aggression (av. Test score 1, 2) in both systems. The position of the ear was backward and down during eating, ruminating, and sleeping, being more obvious in tied animals than in free animals. Total leukocyte count was higher (P<0.05) in free animals (15.26 ×10 3 /uL) than in tied stalls (11.41 ×10 3 /uL). The percentage of undigested components of fecal yield was higher (P<0.05) in free than in tied animals. It could be concluded that the free heifers were more comfortable and in better emotional status. The level of free animals' immunity and their readiness to adapt and face dangers were higher. The tied animals might have a better digestion status.","PeriodicalId":14889,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Animal and Poultry Production","volume":" 31","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141671805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The control diet plus 50, 100, and 200 mg of MLEx/kg diet were given to the second, third, and fourth groups, respectively. The study found that the groups fed a diet with 200 mg MLEx/kg diet had the best performance index, body weight, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio and faster growth rate when compared to the control group. Moreover, quails treated with MLEx consumed less feed than control group. With the exception of TG, the group that was fed a diet containing 200 mg of MLEx/kg diet had the lowest numbers of Salmonella, Escherichia coli, lipid profiles, blood glucose and liver enzymes (ALT and AST), with the highest levels of IgG, IgA, IgM and trypsin in comparison to the control group (p < 0.01). Furthermore, quails given 100 mg MLEx/kg diet showed the highest numbers of lactobacilli, amylase, and lipase, while TG and TBARS values were lowest in these birds.

Fixed effects are farm, year of calving – season, and animal parity. The VCE program was used to estimate variance components and genetic parameters. The MY, CI and AFC averages were 3280 kg, 15 mo and 32 mo and their heritability estimates were 0.20, 0.07 and 0.34, respectively. Genetic and phenotypic correlations among the traits ranged from 0.03 to 0.05 and from -0.04 to 0.04, respectively. The corresponding genetic (GT) and phenotypic trends for the studied traits showed deterioration in the overall rates and the ranges of breeding values were from -57 to +105 kg, -0.15 to + 0.25 mo and -0.35 to +0.30 mo for MY, CI and AFC, respectively. Strong intervention in selection and management powers may alter defects by using modern reproductive techniques in breeding programs for future generations. The farm's financial aspects were disturbed by delaying AFC or extending CI. The low CI produced more profit for the farm but prolonging it even for one day caused a financial loss.

On the other hand, the addition of CSP excreted a notable reduction in the number of coliform bacteria compared to the control group.
