Effect of feeding different levels of proteins on growth, blood biochemical and immunological parameters in laying Khaki Campbell ducks
Indian Journal of Animal Research, 2016Co-Authors: S. R. Mohanty, S.k. Sahoo, L. K. Babu, C.r. Pradhan, B. Panigrahi, S. K. JoshiAbstract:A feeding experiment was carried out to study the effect of feeding different levels of protein during laying (20-40 weeks) on growth, feed consumption and mortality in Khaki Campbell ducks. 180 ducks were distributed randomly into three treatment groups viz. T1, T2 and T3 with three replicates of 20 ducks (15 females and 5 males) in each replicate. Birds were allotted to different groups in such a manner that there was no significant difference between the average 20th week body weight among the treatment groups. Between 20-40 weeks, ducks were provided with isocaloric diets with 16, 18 and 20 per cent crude protein in to groups T1, T2 and T3 respectively with ad lib provision of feed and water. Results indicated that supplementation of crude protein of about 18% in the ration during laying period might be sufficient with respect to growth trait in Khaki Campbell layer ducks. Further, the mortality ranged from 2 to 3.2% during laying stage, which was within normal range indicating that the different levels of protein supplementation in diet could not influence the health condition of ducks. The effect of different levels of protein supplementation in the diet during active stage of laying (30th week) was found to be non-significant, with respect to blood biochemicals like total protein, albumin, abumin:gobulin ratio, glucose, urea and creatinine concentration. The level of primary antibody in T1, T2 and T3 of female ducks were 6.00 ± 0.00, 5.33 ± 0.33 and 6.33 ± 0.33 and for combined sex they were 5.00 ± 0.52, 5.33 ± 0.33 and 5.67 ± 0.42, respectively.

Effect of dietary protein on reproductive growth of Khaki Campbell ducks
Indian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2015Co-Authors: S.c. Giri, S.k. Sahoo, K.v.h. Sastry, R.k.s. BaisAbstract:A study was carried out to find out the minimum level of crude protein in grower diet of female ducks between 8–16 weeks of age for optimum growth of reproductive organs and earliest onset of egg laying. Khaki Campbell ducklings (420) were brooded and maintained with starter ration till 8 wks of age after which 180 female ducks were randomly selected and reared in 3 groups with 3 replicates in each. Three types of iso-caloric grower ration (14, 16 and 18% crude protein) were offered separately between 8–16 wks of age. At 12th and 16th wk of age, biometry of female reproductive tract was taken. Total protein, total cholesterol, calcium and inorganic phosphorus level in blood serum at 12 and 16 wks age and age at first egg were recorded. The observations revealed the maximum growth of female reproductive organs took place between 12–16th wk age. Significant differences were found in length of whole reproductive tract, infundibulum and weight of ovary between 3 feeding groups at 12th wk of age and width of ovary at 16th wk. Age at first egg was the lowest for 16% CP followed by 18 and 14% fed group. Concentration of total protein at 12 and 16 wks and calcium at 16th wk age differed significantly between groups. Thus, It may be concluded that 16% CP in diet is beneficial for Khaki Campbell ducks during growing stage for better reproductive organ growth as well as for early sexual maturity.

Effects of feeding different levels of proteins on the performance in Khaki Campbell ducks during starter stage.
Indian Journal of Animal Research, 2015Co-Authors: S. K. Joshi, S.k. Sahoo, S.c. Giri, L. K. Babu, D. MondalAbstract:The present study was conducted on the 225 unsexed day-old Khaki Campbell ducklings in the Regional Centre, CARI, Bhubaneswar during the period between March to June, 2013. The ducklings were randomly distributed into three treatment groups viz. T1, T2 and T3 supplemented with 18, 20 and 22 per cent crude protein respectively and three replicates in each group to study the effect of feeding different levels of proteins on the performance of the ducks during starter stage. It was found that the live weight of ducklings in different treatments group increased steadily up to 8 weeks of age attaining the lowest body weight of 1243.45±23.01 g in T1 and highest body weight of 1292.97±0.71 g in T3. Significantly (p£0.05) lower daily feed intake was observed in T3 during 3rd week of age than T1 and T2 and the intake was significantly (p£0.05) lower in T3 than T1 but not from T2 at 8th week of age. The apparent metabolisibility of dry matter in T1, T2 and T3 were 75.46±0.90, 77.70±0.30 and 79.38±0.89 per cent, respectively and there was a significant difference in the metabolisability of dry matter (per cent) among different treatments. The nitrogen intake was significantly (p£0.05) higher in T3 (3.63 g/day) than T1 (3.16 g/day), but the difference between T3 and T2 was found to be non-significant. The impact of different levels of protein supplementation in the diet of ducks was found to be non-significant with respect to blood glucose, total protein, albumin, globulin, albumin and globulin ratio, total cholesterol and creatinine concentration after 8 weeks of age. It can be concluded that with increase in the supplementation of protein in the Khaki Campbell ducks during the starter period significantly better impact the health and productive traits of the birds and thereby the overall economic status of the farm.

Production performance of ducks under extensive system of management in tribal districts of Odisha
Indian journal of poultry science, 2014Co-Authors: S.c. Giri, S.k. Sahoo, S.k. Karna, S. Saran, K.v.h. Sastry, N. KandiAbstract:An experiment was conducted in five tribal villages of Odisha to find out the production performances of Khaki Campbell and native ducks under extensive system of management where perennial ponds are available. Brooding of ducklings for fifteen days with commercial feedwas managed after which they were exposed to free range management system. Leftover food material and kitchen wastes were provided and vaccination against duck plague was done in subsequent time. Growth and production performances, mortality and egg quality data were recorded. The study revealed that Khaki Campbell ducks gained significant body wt. during initial phase which reversed for native ducks after 16th wk of age due to its better scavenging ability from environment. Attainment of sexual maturity with significantly more egg production up to 40th wk was observed in Khaki Campbell where as egg wt and other egg traits were better in native ducks. Initial mortality in case of native ducks was little higher; however, by 6 months of age no such difference between the varieties was found. Economics of duck rearing w.r.t. both the varieties revealed a non-significant difference. It may be concluded that both Khaki Campbell and native ducks performed well under extensive system of management and cross breeding may be done to produce a better variety suitable for the farmers to rear in village ponds.

The live weight of ducklings in different treatments increased steadily up to 8 weeks of age and the cumulative body weight gain was significantly (P<0.05) higher in T3 (646.78±16.19 g) than T1 (523.11±6.43 g) during 0–4 weeks of age but the differences between T3 and T2 were found to be non-significant (646.78±16.19 g and 600.41±10.18 g). The overall cumulative feed consumption per duck under different treatments was similar with values ranging from 4522.82 to 4792.75 g per duck during 0–8 weeks of age. The cost of feed per kg live weight gain was significantly (P<0.05) lower in T3 ( 78.00) followed by T2 ( 85.34) and T1 ( 91.27) from 0–4 weeks of age. Therefore, increase in the supplementation of protein in the Khaki Campbell ducks during the starter period significantly improved the growth and feed conversion ratio of the birds, suggesting that the protein level in the diet should be maintained at 22% during starter period.

Morphological traits of duck and geese breeds of West Bengal, India
Animal Genetic Resources Ressources génétiques animales Recursos genéticos animales, 2013Co-Authors: Sandip BanerjeeAbstract:The study pertains to phenotypic characterization of some breeds of duck (common white duck and Indian runner duck), Muscovy ducks (black and white feathered and sepia feathered) besides two breeds of geese (white and brown feathered and white feathered) reared in the state of West Bengal (India). The study was conducted at five locations of the state and comprised 1395 ducks and 600 geese. The data were analysed statistically using mainly descriptive statistics, the differences in mean were analysed using Duncan's multiple range test. Both qualitative and quantitative traits were considered in the study. The qualitative traits were shank colour, bill colour, colour of the feathers, skin colour, egg shell colour, the presence or absence of beans, body carriage, bill type and colour of the eyes, while the quantitative traits included in the study were weight of the ducks and weight of the eggs. Some production traits such as numbers of eggs laid per year and dressing percentage of the drakes and ganders of each breed too have been studied. The ducks and geese are raised under semi-intensive management system and mostly depend on scavenging for their nutritional needs. This results in poor egg production and at times loss of stock because of diseases. The study regarding average egg production indicated that the Muscovy ducks and the geese have poor egg production, whereas the Indian runner followed by the common white duck are potentially the best. The ducks are important source of earnings for the small holder farmers and are raised both for meat and eggs, while the geese are reared mostly for ornamental purpose. However, the populations of the ducks are fast dwindling because of avian influenza in the region and because restocking is mostly being carried out with less adapted Khaki Campbell ducks. This happens mainly because the government farms that were responsible for providing the ducklings for restocking maintain Khaki Campbell ducks and do not have the parental stock of the native duck breeds, while restocking of the Muscovy ducks and geese are carried out by the rearers themselves. There are also no prevailing breeding programmes to conserve, select, maintain and distribute the native breeds of duck and geese. Hence, it is of earnest importance to conserve the avian genetic resources before the population dwindles further.

correlations among some carcass traits in Khaki Campbell drakes reared in west bengal india
2011Co-Authors: Sandip BanerjeeAbstract:The study pertains to the carcass traits of Khaki Campbell drakes which were reared at a commercial farm in Eastern India. Khaki Campbell is a breed of duck known for superior egg laying capacity. The results indicate that the drakes of the breed can be effectively fattened and used for meat purpose. The average weight of the drakes in the study was 1456. ±172.65 and the dressing percentage were assessed to be 54.7%, which is lower than the values for meat breed of ducks. The values for different carcass cuts too have been tabulated along with that of the different no edible and edible giblets. The correlation studies indicate that most of the traits studied are significantly correlated with carcass weight however non significant yet positive correlation values were obtained between, however negative correlation with most of the traits was estimated with lumber region.

Comparative Study Between Some Curve Fit Regression Analysis in Predicting Carcass Cuts of Khaki Campbell Drakes Using Some non Invasive Body Measurements
2011Co-Authors: Sandip BanerjeeAbstract:The study pertains to estimating the carcass weight and weights of different carcass cuts using non invasive methods (slaughter weight and breast angle prior to slaughter). The results indicate that the accuracy of the breast angle to assess the weights of the neck, thorax, pectoral muscles and liver, are higher than the body weight itself, indicating a significant response to selection between the traits studied and the breast angle. The results for the hind region of the carcass (drumsticks and lumber were better predicted using the slaughter weight. In all the cases the quadratic curve fit equation proved to be the best estimator, except for assessing the weight of the lumber region which was better estimated using the compound, power, growth, exponential and logistic curve fit equation, however the results are only slightly better than those obtained using the quadratic regression equation. Ducks are reared under semi intensive management used to predict the weight of the carcass and also system of management.
