Abstract
The experiment was conducted to study the effect of adding different levels of rocket seeds powder to the diets on some productive and reproductive traits. The experiment involved the use of sixty unsexed chicks of Japanese quail one day old, which randomly distributed to five treatments with three replicates per treatment and an average of four birds in each replicate, in day 21 of age replace birds distribution on the replicates by put three birds in each replicate (one male with two females). The experimental treatments as follows (T1) control treatment,T2 ,T3 , T4 ,T5 Addition 2, 4, 6, 8 g of rocket seeds powder / kg of feed, The experiment lasted for 60 days.
The results showed significant improvement (p<0.05) in sexual maturity age to the birds of experiment treatments, where sexual maturity in early age, comparison with sexual maturity age to the birds of control treatment. also the results was showed that the addition of rocket seeds powder to the diets, significant improved (p<0.05) of productive performance for the experiment treatments birds T2, T3, T4, T5, which represent to the body weight in sexual maturity age and in age 60 day, and rate of egg weight in maturity age and in age 45, 60 day, also proportion of eggs production, number of eggs, mass of productive eggs and the results was showed significant superiority (p<0.05) for the relative weights of the testes and ovaries in males and females of the experimental treatments birds on the relative weights of the control treatment birds. and resulted from addition the rocket seeds powder to the diets, significant increase in the concentration of sex hormones (testosterone and estrogen) in blood of the experiment treatments birds ,comparison with concentration of these hormones in blood of control birds .
We conclude from this study that the addition of rocket seeds powder at the different levels to the Japanese quail diets, improvement of productive and reproductive traits. Therefore, rocket seeds could be used as food additional for improving productive and reproductive performance
