Abstract

Most work conducted to determine the effects of feed particle size on broiler performance and gut development has been done under experimental conditions in cage trials. The primary reason for this is that fibrous material (litter) may interfere with gut development and performance. This study was conducted under commercial conditions on deep litter to determine the effect of wheat as part of a commercial diet, particle size and milling type on broiler performance and gut development.
