Effects of periodic feeding on the performance of broiler chickens [Malaysia]

Two experiments were carried out to determine the effect of various durations of periodic feeding during the cooler periods of the day on broiler performance. Birds restricted to 3 hr of feeding per day were not able to consume their daily requirement of feed for growth. On periodic feeding schedule...
