Influence of the Consumption of Four Diets on the Biological Blood Parameters of Japanese Quail (Coturnix japonica) Farmed in Côte D’ivoire

To ensure that newly formulated food (A1, A2 and A3) based on local products and commercial love (AT), fed to quail reared in captivity for 9 weeks, did not affect their health biologicaly, biochemical blood analysis were carried out on them at the end of the experiment. The results obtained show that the quails fed with A3 and AT foods have the highest respective crude protein levels (55.67 ± 1.70 and 55 ± 0.82 g/l). In addition, the blood Ca/P ratio which represents the index of a good metabolism of these electrolytes, between 1 and 2, is in accordance with the recommendations in force. In addition, the average urea and creatinine levels of all the quails studied are identical to those of the control quails. Similarly, in quail fed with commercial food AT, uricemia is the highest (66 ± 0.82 mg/l) in this study. Quails fed with commercial food AT have the highest cholesterol level (2.24 ± 0.04 g/l). However, quails fed with feed A3 are those with the lowest level of triglycerides (6.80 ± 0.02 g/l). Thus, consumption of the newly formulated feeds A1, A2 and A3 by quails did not affect their renal, hepatic, pancreatic and heart health like that of quails fed the commercial feed AT.
