Feed manufacturing the mill equipment type used, and some properties of the mill equipment (for example corrugations, gap, speed, and energy consumption). As reports have indicated, feeding make-up the major cost in raising poultry animals as birds in general require feeding more than any other animals did particularly due to their faster growth rate and high rate of productivity. Feeding efficiency is reflected on the birds’ performance and its products. According to National Research Council (1994), poultry required at least 38% components in their feed.
