Table 3 Effects of BLFs supplementation on carcass yield of broilers

Item	CON	ANT	BLFL	BLFH	SEM	P-value
Carcass yield, %	87.0 ± 1.56	89.1 ± 1.35	88.8 ± 1.82	88.6 ± 1.70	1.74	0.072
Breast meat percentage, %	16.6 ± 0.53	17.1 ± 0.89	17.3 ± 0.45	17.4 ± 0.69	0.70	0.088
Leg meat percentage, %	13.1 ± 0.53^b	13.2 ± 0.54^b	13.5 ± 0.64^ab	14.2 ± 0.62^a	0.72	0.003

All measurements were expressed as Mean ± SD (n = 6). ^a,bMeans with different letters in the same rows are different significantly (P < 0.05). Birds supplemented with basal diet (CON), supplemented with 20 mg bacitracin/kg (ANT), supplemented with 50 mg BLFs/kg (BLFL) or supplemented with 250 mg BLFs/kg (BLFH)
