  Abstract

The purpose of this research is to know the effect of calcium lactate in a chick’s weight and carbon dioxide production. It is to help other people who are finding supplements to increase their chick’s weight and likewise its carbon dioxide production. To find out the results, the researchers prepared 3 set-ups for the experimental group. All of the set – ups were fed with standard feed. Set up A was fed without the calcium lactate. Set up B was fed with 150mg of calcium lactate. While Set up C, on the other hand, was fed with 250mg of calcium lactate. The temperature of the area, the age of the chicks and the feeds and water that were consumed remained constant. The group fed the chicks twice a day. Set up B and C were fed with the supplement of calcium lactate on their feed and water in the morning. The researchers recorded the weight and the carbon dioxide levels of the chicks before the chicks were fed and after one week. The researchers have observed that Set Up B which feed contains 150mg of calcium lactate had the largest difference between its initial and final weight which is 50 grams. Set Up A which was only fed with the standard feed had 30g difference between its initial and final weight. While, Set Up C which feed contains 250mg of calcium lactate had 19g difference between its initial and final weight. The group also observed the carbon dioxide production of the chicks. It was found that, Set Up A had a difference of 16858ppm on its initial and final carbon dioxide production. While, Set Up B had a difference of 4166 ppm and Set C had a difference of 8235ppm on its initial and final carbon dioxide production. Based on the presented data, the group therefore concluded that the calcium lactate would cause a chick’s bone density increase which would result to an increase on the chick’s weight and too much intake of it will make the chick lose its appetite. Too much calcium lactate would also increase the carbon dioxide production resulting for the chick’s heartbeat to rise.
