< em > Orychophragmus violaceus < /em > and/or chicory forage affects performance, egg quality, sensory evaluation and antioxidative properties in native laying hens

In conclusion, the present study suggests that CC had a better effect on the performance of the native laying hens than OV. The OV and CC affected egg quality, while YC was increased in CC and OVC groups. The OVC improved YC and serum antioxidative properties of native laying hens without affecting the performance.PMID:38006583 | DOI:10.1080/10495398.2023.2286610
