Abstract
Aureomycin at a level of 10 mg per pound of ration did not increase the 4-week weights of chicks raised in new quarters. When the level of the antibiotic was increased to 100 mg per pound of ration, however, a significant increase in growth occurred, in both clean and unclean pens.Keywords
