Abstract

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of distillers' grain originated from Meijiuhe river area on growth performance, nitrogen metabolism and plasma immune indices of Qianbeima lambs. Thirty-two healthy lambs were randomly assigned to 4 groups with 8 replicates per group and 1 lamb per replicate in a single factor randomized block design. Lambs in control group, and groups Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ were fed 1 of 4 diets differing in distiller's grain supplemental level at 0 (basal diet), 7%, 14% and 21%, respectively. Results: 1) no significant difference of dry matter was found among the four groups (P>0.05); group Ⅱ resulted in significantly increased average net gain and average daily gain relative to control group and group Ⅲ (P0.05), but group Ⅱ was found to have the best determined levels; group Ⅱ had the lowest urine nitrogen (P0.05). These results indicate that dietary supplementation of 14% distillers' grain can increase growth performance and nitrogen metabolism, and improve plasma immune indices of Qianbeima lambs.

Key words： distiller's grain; growth performance; nitrogen metabolism; plasma immune indices; lambs
