Inclusion of up to 5% fig seed meal did not negatively affect growth performance in quails, showing promise as an alternative feed.
Quails fed 5% fig seed meal demonstrated similar body weight gain compared to the control group, highlighting its nutritive value.
Analysis showed that higher levels of fig seed meal, particularly at 10%, reduced body weight gain and feed conversion ratio effectively.
Serum biochemistry and antioxidant capacity remained stable with up to 5% inclusion of fig seed meal, indicating its safe use in quail diets.
