Abstract

Effect of different oil sources on growth performance, carcass characteristics and blood metabolites of broilers was studied using 160 male Ross broiler chickens in a completely randomized design with 4 treatments, 4 replicates and 10 birds each. Treatments included: 1) basal diet plus soybean oil, 2) basal diet plus sunflower oil, 3) basal diet plus canola oil and 4) basal diet plus sesame oil. Effect of different oil sources on feed intake was not significant in different periods. In grower, finisher and whole periods, sesame and canola oil fed birds showed better weight gain and feed conversion ratio compared to other oil sources. The food cost was significantly higher for diets including sesame oil compared to others and birds fed sesame oil had lower profit than canola and soybean oil fed birds (P<0.05). The relative weight of carcass, breast and thigh was higher in broiler fed with sesame and canola oil (P<0.05). The blood cholesterol decreased significantly in sesame oil treatment (P<0.05). Considering the lower price and higher profit of canola oil containing diets compared to sesame oil and also better performance of birds fed sesame and canola oil, we would recommend using canola oil in broiler diets.
