Values are mean ± standard deviation. Values in the same row with same superscripts
are not significantly different (P ≥ 0.05).
¹FBW=final body weight.
²FI= feed intake.
³SGR, specific growth rate= (Ln FBW-Ln IBW)/90x100.
⁴FCR, feed conversion ratio=dry feed fed/ body weight gain.
⁵PER, protein efficiency ratio= final body weight gain/protein intake X100.
