Abstract

A total number of 108 Japanese quail birds (72 females and 36 males) at 6 weeks old was used to evaluate the supplementation of either Palm Pollen(PP) or PanaxGinseng (PG) or their mixture to the diets of laying quail on productive, reproductive traits and some physiological parameters. Quails were weighed individually, randomly (201.97gm ± 1.13 body weight) distributed into four experimental groups. Each group contained 27 birds (18 hens and 9 males). The first group was fed the basal diet as control group (without any supplementation), the second group was fed the basal diet and supplemented with 5 g PP/kg diet, the third group was supplemented with 0.5 g PG/kg diet and the fourth group was supplemented with 5g PP +0.5g PG /kg diet during the experimental period from 7 to 22 weeks of age. Each group was divided into three replicates of 6 females and 3 males in each.          The results indicated that quails fed either Palm Pollen or PanaxGinseng or their mixed had significant (P<0.01) increased live body weight change (weight gain), egg  production percentage and egg mass as well as improved(P<0.01) feed conversion ratio (g feed/g egg mass) as compared with control group. However, percentage of fertility and hatchability of egg sets had significant (P<0.01) increased. Sperm motility (% ) and sperm-cell concentration                 (x109/ml) of quails treated with  supplemented of PP and PG  significantly (P<0.01) increased compared with the other treatment groups, while dead spermatozoa (%), sperm abnormalities (%) and acrosomal damage (%) of quails treated with  PP or PG and their mixture significantly (P<0.01) decreased compared with the control group. Fertility, and hatchability of egg sets laying were significantly (P<0.01) increased compared with control group.  Total protein increased significantly (P<0.01) However, blood serum tri-glycerides, cholesterol and glucose concentration decreased significantly (P<0.01). The histological findings in testes of male treated with either PP or PG or their mixture showed an improvement of the cellular activity and spermatogenesis in the testicular sections.         Conclusively, supplementing of Palm Pollen 5 g PP/kg diet or Panax Ginseng  (0.5 g PG/kg diet) and their mixture to the diet of laying quails can be used safely significantly increasing appease productive and reproductive performance of quails.
