Abstract
This experiment was conducted at department of animal Production college of agriculture - Kirkuk university, to study the effect of adding different levels of ginger powder and dried tomato powder on the production performance and Egg Quality Traits of female Japanese quail. A total of 140 female domestic quail 50 days old were used in the experiment. Birds were distributed randomly into 7 groups with five replicates and 4 birds for each replicate. The birds in all treatments fed free feed contained 20% crude protein and 2935 kcal / kg of metabolizambel energy treatments were as fallowing: T1: The control treatment without dried tomato powder and ginger roots powder. T2: 0.5 % ginger roots powder. T3: 1 % ginger roots powder. T4: 0.5 % dried tomato powder. T5: 1 % dried tomato powder. T6: 0.5 % ginger roots powder + 0.5 % dried tomato powder. T7: 1 % ginger roots powder + 1 % dried tomato powder. results showed that addition of (GRP) improved feed Intake and Feed Conversion Ratio, the (DTP) reduced egg production. The experimental treatments have no significant effects on Egg Quality Traits (egg shell thickness, shape index, albumen index, yolk index). Significantly improvement were fourd in Malonedi Aldehyde(MDA) and free fatty acid(FFA) and cholesterol ratio
