The present study evaluated the effects of dietary supplementation of chitooligosaccharide (COS) on egg production, egg quality and blood profiles in laying hens. A total of 192 Hy-Line Brown laying hens (initial age- 46 weeks) were allocated to one of four treatments with eight replications per treatment and six adjacent cages as replication for eight-weeks study. Dietary treatments consisted of CON, basal diet; COS1, CON + 0.1% COS; COS2, CON + 0.2% COS; and COS3, CON + 0.3% COS. Linear improvement (P<0.05) was observed in egg quality and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL/C) concentration at subsequent weeks. In week 8, linear (P=0.04) improvement was observed in haugh unit of egg with the increase in the dose of COS. In addition, linear effects (P<0.05) on eggshell thickness at week 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8 were detected as the level for increased COS. In conclusion, the supplementation of COS in laying hens diets linearly improved the egg quality and the HDL/C concentration. Thus, COS has the potential to be used as a substitute to antibiotics in layer hen’s diets.
