Effects of housefly larvae meal and multi-enzyme-probiotic supplementation on performance, egg quality, and blood biochemistry in laying hens by Abolfazl Salehizadeh, Ph.D, Mehran Torki, Ph.D, Maryam Darbemamieh, Ph.D, Seyed Davood Sharifi, Ph.D

“…The inclusion of HFLM, with or without Rayabold, significantly reduced feed intake compared to the control; however, Rayabold partially offset this reduction at the 5 % and 10 % HFLM levels. Although feed intake was reduced, egg production remained unaffected, while egg weight increased notably in hens receiving 15 % HFLM combined with Rayabold. …”
