<b>Calcium levels in escargot <em>Helix aspersa maxima</em> diets in growth phase</b> - DOI: 10.4025/actascibiolsci.v27i1.1361
Abstract
The experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of different calcium levels in diets for Helix aspersa maxima in growth phase. One hundred and sixty animals were used with initial mean weight of 6.00 g distributed in a completely randomized design with four treatments (2.00, 3.00, 4.00 and 5.00% of calcium) and four replicates. Linear improve (p < 0.05) of calcium level was observed concerning the final weight medium, percentage of weight gain and food conversion as well as quadratic effect on carcass yield and feed intake. Nevertheless the survival rate was not affected. Results show that the calcium increase promotes a better performance of Helix aspersa maxima in growth phase and that the diet with 5.00% of calcium is highly recommendedDownloads
