Effects of feeding Mealworms on growth performance and overall quality of Japanese quails (Coturnix japonica)

This research sums up several benefits of Mealworm meal to Quails specifically Coturnix japonica. In this journal, Zahra Shariat Zadeh et. al compared three dietary treatments: 1) soybean meal, 2) fish meal, and 3) mealworm meal. Feeding the mealworm meals produced the highest feed conversion ratio. Moreover, the carcass and breast yields were significantly higher than the other treatments. Meat quality was also improved making the mealworms a very good cost-effective protein source for quails.
