Abstract |
Trionyx Pelodiscus sinensis An 8-week feeding trial was undertaken to evaluate the growth and survival of soft-shell turtle, Trionyx sinensis, hatchlings fed with trash fish (TF), fish meal (FM), poultry by-product meal (PM) and a 1:1 mixture of FM and PM (MIX). No significant difference (P>0.05) was observed for survival; however, the weight gain and carapace length among different dietary treatments were significantly different (P<0.05). The weight gain and carapace length for hatchlings fed with MIX and PM were highest and lowest (P<0.05), respectively. It is concluded that the inexpensive and readily available poultry by-product can be substituted in part for FM in feed formulation for soft-shell turtle culture.
