Abstract

A lot of zinc in clamshell produces an aromatase blocker attribute that enhances testosterone production. Protein-rich traits enable fishbone as a protein source for animals. Testosterone amplifies muscle protein synthesis and proliferation. Furthermore, T3 and T4 regulate fat and protein conversion into energy. The fluctuation of body fat and protein influences body weight. Bangkok roosters (Gallus gallus) develop massive muscle and aggressive physical activity that portray testosterone manifestations. But, the effect of natural aromatase blockers on T3 and T4 and body weight needs further study, especially in Bangkok roosters with clamshell and fishbone treatment. This research aimed to assess the clamshell and fishbone effects on T3, T4, and body weight. Three-month-old Bangkok roosters underwent an experiment for 35 days with weekly weighing. The weekly T3 and T4 measurements employed an enzyme immunosorbent assay. All rooters consisted of three groups: P0 (n = 6) did not receive any treatment, P1 (n = 6) received clamshell and fishbone treatment, and P2 (n = 6) consumed fishbone treatment only. The significant results were the data that showed p < 0.05 in the ANOVA test. Roosters in P1 showed a drop in the T3/T4 ratio (p < 0.05) at the end of the experiment. No significant changes appeared in body-weight (p > 0.05). The fall of T3/T4 represents that the roosters are free from the energy deficit. The increase of T3 proceeds fat and protein breakdown to fulfill energy needs. T4 has a similar function to T3 but also presents as a T3 prohormone. The intact body weight indicates that the treatment is desirable for energy balance. Clamshell and fishbone treatment can be a supportive feed supplement to improve metabolism in Bangkok roosters. Current results proved that clamshell and fishbone supplementations reduced T3/T4 ratio but did not influence body weight in Bangkok roosters. This study suggested that clamshell and fishbone were effective natural substances for modifying growth and metabolism in chickens.
