Items Control HS P values
Initial weights (kg) 1.643 ± 0.092 1.622 ± 0.076 0.8103
Final weights (kg) 4.203 ± 0.156 3.467 ± 0.174 0.0105
ADG (g) 91.43 ± 2.45 65.89 ± 5.25 0.0098
Feed/Gain 2.65 ± 0.12 3.01 ± 0.13 0.0467

Dada are expressed as mean ± SD. ADG, average daily gain; Feed/Gain, the ratio of feed intake to body weight gain.
