Abstract

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of yeast culture (YC) on performance, egg quality and egg health indicators of laying hens. A total of 2 304 Roman brown laying hens at 210-day-old were randomly allocated into 4 groups with 3 replicates per group and 192 laying hens per replicate. Hens in the control group (YC0 group) were fed a corn-soybean meal basal diet, and the others in the experimental groups (YC0.2, YC0.4 and YC0.6 groups) were fed the basal diet supplemented with 0.2%, 0.4% and 0.6% YC, respectively. The experiment lasted for 9 weeks. The results showed as follows:1) compared with the control group, the average egg weight of YC0.4 and YC0.6 groups was significantly increased (P<0.05), and the egg broken rate was significantly decreased (P<0.05); the soft egg rate of YC0.2, YC0.4 and YC0.6 groups was significantly decreased (P<0.05). 2) Compared with the control group, the shell thickness of YC0.4 and YC0.6 groups was significantly increased (P<0.05); the lighteness value of yolk color of YC0.4 and YC0.6 groups was significantly decreased (P<0.05), and the yellowness value was significantly increased (P<0.05); the redness value of yolk color of YC0.6 group was significantly increased (P<0.05). 3) Compared with the control group, at the third and ninth weeks of the experiment, the coliform number on eggshell surface of YC0.2, YC0.4 and YC0.6 groups was significantly decreased (P<0.05); at the third and sixth weeks of the experiment, the total bacteria number on eggshell surface of YC0.4 group was significantly decreased (P<0.05). 4) Compared with the control group, the apparent digestibility of crude protein, energy and dry matter of YC0.6 group was significantly increased (P<0.05). 5) Compared with the control group, the cecal Lactobacillus number of YC0.2, YC0.4 and YC0.6 groups was significantly decreased (P<0.05). In conclusion, diets supplemented with 0.4% and 0.6% YC can improve the egg quality and the feed digestibility of laying hens; diets supplemented with 0.2%, 0.4% and 0.6% YC can improve the performance of laying hens, and reduce the Lactobacillus number, and inhibit the production of Salmonella in the cecum. Comprehensive consideration, the dietary suitable supplementation of YC for laying hens is 0.4%.
