| Item2 | Con | AMC | SD | P-value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BW, kg | ||||
| Initial BW | 9.22 | 9.49 | 0.86 | 0.274 |
| Final BW | 12.29A | 14.37B | 1.00 | <0.0001 |
| ADG, kg/d | 0.20A | 0.33B | 0.05 | <0.0001 |

| F:G ratio | 1.70A | 1.20B | 0.05 | <0.0001 |
Statistical significance was determined using Student’s t-tests to compare differences between two groups (n = 24); Data are presented as the mean and SD.
BW, body weight; ADG, average daily gain; ADFI, average daily feed intake; F:G, feed to gain ratio.
Means in a row with different superscripts differ significantly (P < 0.01).
