title: Effects of additional vitamins, minerals, or brewer's yeast upon leg weaknesses in broiler chickens.
abstract: Leg weaknesses occurring in commercial broiler chickens were studied in three experiments. No significant improvement was obtained by added dietary levels of known anti-perotic factors. Definite improvements in leg weaknesses occurred when the complete, practical diet was supplemented with 2.5 and 5.0% brewer's dried yeast.
