Abstract
Sargassum supplementation was evaluated on the effect of internal egg quality traits of Japanese quails at mid-late laying stage. There were three treatments and one control group. Each treatment and control group is replicated three times. The study was carried out in a complete randomized design (CRD). Results shows yolk weight at 15% supplementation got 4.63 grams, percent yolk ratio oranges from 39.39% to 46.44%, yolk: albumen ratio at 15% was highest than the rest of the treatments. Yolk color manifested similar pale colors number 4 among treatments based on the Roche Yolk Color Fan instrument and albumen weight results was recorded heaviest weight (4.09 grams). Thus, significant differences were observed at (p <0.05). Therefore, using pulverized sargassum as dietary supplement has economic potential and provides better internal egg quality traits at 15% supplementation.
