description In order to evaluate the dietary supplementation of powdered leaves of Morinda citrifolia on productivity and egg quality of laying hens, a total of 160 White Leghorn birds (Hybrid L-33) of 27 weeks of age were allotted during 70 days, according to completely randomized design. Dietary treatments consisted of a control diet fed without or with 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5% of powdered leaves of M. citrifolia. Supplementation of 1.0 and 1.5% of M. citrifolia powder increased the egg weight (P&lt,0.05), however, laying intensity, body weight, feed intake, unsuitable eggs, eggshell surface, mass conversion, haugh units and height of the dense white and of the yolk showed no significant differences (P&gt,0.05) among treatments. Also, supplementation of 0.5 and 1.0% of M. citrifolia increased the shell thickness and the yolk color was pigmented by this medicinal plant. It recommended the dietary supplementation of 1.0% of powdered leaves of M. citrifolia on laying hen diets to improve the egg weight, shell thickness and yolk color.

Para evaluar la suplementación de polvo de hojas de Morinda citrifolia sobre la productividad y Ia calidad de huevos de gallinas ponedoras, un total de 160 aves White Leghorn (hibridas L-B) de 27 semanas de edad, se ubicaron durante 70 días, según un diseño totalmente aleatorizado. Los tratamientos consistieron en una dieta control sin o con 0.5, 1.0 y 1.5% de polvo de hojas de M. citrifolia. La suplementación de 1.0 y 1.5% de M. citrifolia incremento el peso del huevo (P<0.05), sin embargo, la intensidad de puesta, el peso vivo, el consumo de alimento, los huevos no aptos, la superficie de la cascara, la conversión masal, las unidades haugh y Ia altura de la clara densa y de la yema no mostraron diferencias significativas (P>0.05) entre tratamientos. Además, Ia suplementación de 0.5 y 1.0% de M. citrifolia incremento el grosor de la cascara y el color de la yema se pigmento por esta planta medicinal. Se recomienda Ia suplementación de 1.0% de polvo de hojas de M. citrifolia en las dietas de las gallinas ponedoras para mejorar el peso del huevo, el grosor de la cascara y el color de la yema.
