Abstract
Methane arsonic acid (disodium salt) was supplied for the broiler chicken (_??_), -W. Cornish X W. Rock, with the basal diet.
The amount of the arsenicals added in the diet was 5ppm of As2O5 for the day-old chicken, and its amount of As2O5 was increased to 10-15ppm with the growth of the chicken before the age reaches eight weeks.
The arsenicals promoted the growth of the chicken statistically, and the standard deviations of the gained body weight were smaller than those of the non treatment.
Methane arsonic acid (disodium salt) improved the feed conversion ratio.
