Abstract: The experiment was conducted to evaluate the
effect of using the magnetic drinking water and both of
the form and feed restriction on the broilers (Sasso strain)
chicks performance: Body Weight (BW), Daily Body
Weight Gain (DBWG), Daily Water Consumption
(DWC), Daily Feed Consumption (DFC), Feed
Conversion Ratio (FCR) and Mortality Percentages (MR)
of the whole experimental period. A total number of 1600
chicks unsexed Sasso broiler was used, divided into eight
Treatments with two replicates for each treatments, in
factorial experimental design 2×mn;2×mn;2 by two replicates.
The results of present study for the whole experimental
period, showed highly significant differences (p≤0.001)
between water treatments on BW at 8 weeks of age, since,
the birds drank magnetic water has heavier BW than those
drank ordinary water. Also, feed form and restricted diet
had significant differences on Sasso broiler BW, since,
those fed crumble diet or fed ad libtum has heavier weight
than those fed pellet diet or fed 90% amount of feed. The
results of DBWG showed significant difference between
all treatment studied, since, magnetic water, crumble diet
and ad libitum feeding has the superiority in that respect.
Magnetic water and ad libtum feeding reduce significantly
(p≤0.001) DWC values while the effect of feed form in
that respect was insignificant. The only significant
differences (p≤0.001) of DFC values was found between
feeding treatments, since, those fed ad libtum has higher
DFC (80.99 g) than those fed 90% amount of diet
(70.63 g). The results of FCR indicated highly significant
differences between water treatments, since, those drink
magnetic water have better FCR values compared with
those drink ordinary water. Feed form has insignificant
differences in respect of FCR values, both forms has
equal value (2.31), however, feed restriction has
highly significant better FCR value (2.21) than those fed
ad libtium (2.41). In respect of MR, magnetic water
treatment has significant (p≤0.05) higher MR than those
drink ordinary water. Feed forms have insignificant effect
on MR while the feed restriction has highly significant
(p≤0.01) better MR value (2.06%) than ad libitum feeding
(3.44%).
