RESUMO

A experiment was conducted to study the effect of organic trace mineral sources supplementation on egg production and quality for laying hens. It were used 8 treatments: one treatment with every trace minerals on inorganic form, one treatment with all minerals on organic form and 6 treatments where only one mineral were organic. The trace minerals were: zinc, manganese, iodine, selenium, copper and iron. Corn and soybean meal diets were used. 672 babcock B300 laying hens with 48 week were used. The production parameters analyzed were: Feed intake, egg production, egg weight, egg mass and feed conversion. The parameters of egg quality analyzed were: specific gravity, haugh unit and eggshell percent. Data were summarized for 3 periods of 28 days and analyzed by SAS. The results for first analyzes of egg quality showed a decrease in Haugh unit for the treatment with organic iron (p<0,05) and a decrease on eggshell percent for the chelates zinc and copper (p<0,05), when this results were compared with the inorganic mineral supplementation. For the other parameters weren’t showed statistic differences. The results for egg production weren’t different for the tree periods, except for egg mass that was decrease to organic iron treatment in the last period (p<0,05). The experiment results suggest that the supplementation with organic minerals didn’t improve the egg production and quality for laying between 48 – 60 weeks of age, when its were compared with inorganic mineral supplementation.
