Chicks fed a diet supplemented with the solubilized trimmings at a 2 or 3 per cent dry basis level for 8 to 32 weeks showed a significant growth response, (Table 1 and 2). The difference in body weight between the chicks fed the solubilized trimmings and the control chicks fed only all-vegetable protein ration was significant at a 5% level (Table 1). It is to be noted that earlier start of egg production has been found in the experimental group (Table 2). It has been shown that chicks which were raised on the ground without using battery-house gave an increase of 14 per cent in the growth rate after 9 weeks by feeding an all-vegetable protein ration with the solubilized trimmings at a 3 per cent level (Table 3).
