With the aim to determine the best processing method to obtain a meal from feathers and blood the following treatments were evaluated: (T1) initial cooking of the feathers for 30 minutes at 4kgf/cm2 , drying for 75 minutes at 180oC, addition of 20% pre-cooked blood, and drying for another 75 minutes at 180oC; (T2) initial cooking of the feathers for 40 minutes at 4kgf/cm2, drying for 90 minutes at 180oC, addition of 20% pre-cooked blood, and additional drying for 90 minutes; (T3) initial cooking of the feathers for 50 minutes atkgf/cm2, drying for 105 minutes at 180oC, addition of 20% pre-cooked blood, and additional drying for 105 minutes; (T4) initial cooking of the feathers for 60 minutes at 4kgf/cm2, drying for120 minutes at 180oC, addition of 20% pre-cooked blood, and additional drying for 120 minutes. The highest energy content and the highest coefficients of digestibility for the /aminoacids were obtained with the meal 1. It was possible to conclude that treatment 1 was the most appropriate to process the feather and blood meal.
