Utilization of Fermented Conch Mas (Pomacea cannaliculata) Flour with Eco Enzymes on Egg Production and Quail Egg Weight

Feed is one of the determining factors for the success of livestock production because it takes up 70-80% of production costs. High-protein feed ingredients are one of the high-priced feed ingredients, so it is necessary to use non- conventional feeds. The golden snail is a pest that interferes with rice growth in agricultural areas. The golden snail has a high protein content so it is very efficient to be used as a protein source feed ingredient. In this study, fermented golden snails in the form of flour were used as a substitute for fish meal in the rations of laying quail. The design used was a completely randomized design (CRD) using 4 treatments and 5 replications, namely P0 = 8% fish flour, P1 = 4% fermented golden snail flour, P2 = 8% fermented golden snail flour, P3 = 12% fermented golden snail flour . The research parameters were feed consumption, egg production, egg weight, feed conversion. The results showed that the utilization of fermented golden snail flour up to 12% had a very significant effect (P<0.01) on feed consumption, egg production and feed conversion with an average of 108.573g/e/week, 33.476%, and 1 ,77. However, it gave an insignificant impact on egg weight with an average value of 10.15 g/grain. The highest ration consumption was at P0 of 114,488g/e/week, the highest egg production was at P3 of 40.667% and the best feed conversion was at P3 of 1.06. The results showed that the use of fermented golden snail flour using 12% Eko enzymes was suitable to be used as a substitute for fish meal
