Abstract
An experiment was conducted to determine the digestibility of copper Cu by sheep fed high-level palm kernel cake PKC based diet. Fifteen cross-bred sheep were allotted to three groups and given PKC-based diet Group I control or control diet 1000 ppm sulphurS 20 ppm molybdenum Mo Group 2 or control diet 500 ppm Zinc Zn. The apparent digestibility of Cu for sheep fed control diet was significantly higher PO.O 1 when compared with those in groups 2 and 3. The digestibility of Cu in lambs in Group 2 was the lowest 12.73 compared to the other groups. On the other hand the faecal excretion of Cu for sheep in Group 2 was the higher than the other groups. The highest urinary excretion of Cu was also observed in sheep of group 2 0.53 ppm. It appears that the retention of Cu was reduced by when S Mo was supplemented in the diet. The effect of Zn was less on both faecal urinary excretion of Cu in comparison with MoS.
