The Nutritional Significance of Animal Protein Supplements in the Diet of the Chick

A. R. Patton1, J. P. Marvel, H. G. Petering2 and J. Waddell

A study was made of the extent to which dl-methionine and sardine fish meal are able to supplement a chick ration containing proteins from corn and soybeans only. Such a diet appears to be lacking in an unknown growth factor which is present in sardine fish meal. There is some evidence that the need for this factor is a peculiarity of the corn-soybean diet.
