An experiment was conducted using 294 3-week-old Arbor Acres male broiler fowls to investigate the effects of adding chromium sources (chromium chloride and yeast chromium) and chromium levels (0, 0.4, 2.0 and 10.0 mg/kg) to corn-soyabean meal diets on growth performance, serum biochemical traits, immune functions and carcass quality of broiler fowls. Fowls were randomly allocated to 7 treatments (the same control group was used for the 2 sources); the experiment lasted for 3 weeks.
