Abstract :

The aim of this study is to evidence the role of antibiotics Tilmicosine and Enrofloxacine in mycoplasmas (MG) control, their impact in hatchery performance and quality of eggs and day old chicks in eeder oiler chickens. The experiment took place for 63 weeks in a eeder oiler farm in Ioannina’s area in Greece. From this area Albanian farmers import the meager number of day old chicks. The 3 groups, were positive in M.gallisepticum (Eliza test, Check flock Mg –IDEEX and cultural control). The best results were in the Tilmicosine group, not only in M.gallisepticum control, but also in the hatchability which was 85.6 %, 84.15% and 83.2% respectively for the Tilmicosine, Enrofloxacine and control group. The average of eggs and day old chicks weight in different days of laying curve (day 210, 280, 350) were better in the Tilmicosine and Enrofloxacine groups, than the control group.
