¹ Experimental diets consisted of corn–soybean meal-based diets supplemented with microalgae (Chlorella vulgaris) at 0 and 5 g/kg, respectively. ² Data represent six replicate cages, with 10 birds used from day 0 to 10 post hatch. Significant differences between the treatments were analyzed using the 1-sample 2-tailed t-test.
