Abstract: Two experiments were carried out using 1,120 chicks to evaluate the electrolyte balance (EB = Na+K-Cl) in growing (21-42 days) broiler diets. The feed, based on corn and soybean meal with 20.0 % CP and 3,200 kcal ME/kg, was offered ad libitum. In experiment I, K level was fixed, but Na and Cl levels varied among the four treatments, which included five replications of 40 birds each. In experiment II, increasing levels of Na and K were used, with a total of four treatments and four replications of 20 birds. In both experiments, the EB treatments were 40; 140; 240 and 340 mEq/kg of feed. EB showed a quadratic effect on weight gain and feed to gain ratio when the electrolyte ratio was increased only by the supplementation of Na. Feed...
