Özet

This research was conducted to determine effects of dietary bergamot oil levels (0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 ml/kg) on performance, egg quality, blood metabolic profile and fatty acid composition of egg yolk in laying hens. Sixty four of 67 weeks old white Lohman LSL laying hens were randomly assigned to four groups equally (n=16). Each treatment was replicated four times
