dc.description.abstractThis study was conducted to determine the effect of Mentha caucasica on growth performance and carcass characteristics in Japanese quails. A total of 150 day old Japanese quail chicks were used in the study. The quails were allocated to 3 groups each comprising 50 animals including the control group, mint group I (given feed added with 0.75% of mint) and mint group II (given feed added with 1.5% of mint). Statistically significant differences were determined between the feeding groups for the body weights measured on days 35 and 42 (p<0.05; p<0.01). In conclusion, it was ascertained that the supplementation of the feed ration with mint (Mentha caucasica) affected both the growth performance and carcass characteristics of the Japanese quail. However, as Mentha caucasica decreases liver weight in quails, it should be used with caution. © Medwell Journals, 2013.en_US
