The method of this embodiment mixes the eucommia seed meal, fermented eucommia leaves with traditional Chinese medicine extracts, biochar-modified montmorillonite, and yeast cell wall extract according to a weight fraction ratio to obtain a eucommia leaf composite feed additive of this embodiment. The eucommia leaf composite feed additive prepared in this embodiment was used for feeding experiments on laying hens, and the feeding process and results are as follows: 960 healthy 26-week-old Hailan brown-shell laying hens with similar egg production rate and body weight were selected and randomly divided into 4 groups, with 6 replicates in each group and 40 hens in each replicate. There was no significant difference in body weight and egg production between groups and replicates (P>0.05). A single-factor completely randomized experimental design was used, with group A as the control group, and groups B, C, and D adding 0.2%, 0.4%, and 0.8% additives to their feed, respectively. The pre-test period was 2 weeks, and the full test period was 10 weeks.

[0031] During the experiment, the health status of laying hens was observed every day, and the egg quality, egg production, and number of soft and broken eggs were recorded. The feed consumption was recorded every week, and the average egg quality, egg production rate, daily feed intake, and feed-to-egg ratio were calculated.

[0032] Egg quality index: On the 35th and 70th days of the formal test, 15 eggs were randomly selected from each repetition, and the egg quality indexes such as albumen height, Haugh unit, yolk color, and egg shape index were measured using the EMT5200 egg quality tester; 10 eggs were randomly selected from each repetition to measure the cholesterol and triglyceride content of eggs. The eggshell strength and eggshell thickness were measured using a series of egg quality testers produced by ORKA, Israel; the cholesterol determination method was as follows: 3 g of egg liquid was weighed, diluted with 27 mL of 2% NaCl solution, shaken on a shaker at room temperature for 2 hours, 1.0 mL of the mixed solution was taken, and 9 mL of 2% NaCl dilution was added to prepare the sample to be tested, and the operation was carried out according to the instructions of the total cholesterol kit, which was purchased from Nanjing Jiancheng Biological Research Institute.

[0033] Blood biochemical indices: On the 35th and 70th days of the experiment, 5 chickens were randomly selected from each replicate, blood was collected from the wing vein on an empty stomach, serum was separated by centrifugation and stored at -20°C, and the concentrations of triglyceride, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein in serum were measured by automatic biochemical analyzer (Hitachi 7180, Beijing). The triglyceride kit and total cholesterol kit were purchased from Shanghai Kehua Reagent, and the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol kit and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol kit were purchased from Zhejiang Yilikang Biotechnology Co., Ltd. The triglyceride concentration was determined by the GPO-PAP method, the total cholesterol concentration was determined by the COD-PAP method, the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration was determined by the phosphotungstic acid-magnesium precipitation method, and the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration was determined by the polyethylene sulfate precipitation method.

[0034] The obtained data were processed and analyzed by SPSS10.0 Oneway ANOVA procedure, and Duncan's method was used for multiple comparisons. P<0.05 was considered significant difference. The results were expressed as "mean ± standard deviation". See Tables 4 to 6 below: Table 4 Production performance of laying hens treated with different contents of Eucommia leaf compound feed additives

[0035] Table 5 Egg quality of laying hens treated with different contents of Eucommia leaf compound feed additives

[0036] Table 6 Blood fat metabolism indexes of laying hens treated with different contents of Eucommia leaf compound feed additives

[0037] Among them, different letters in the same row indicate significant differences (P < 0.05), and the same or no letters indicate no significant differences (P > 0.05).

[0038] As shown in Tables 4 to 6, the food intake of laying hens fed with the Eucommia leaf composite feed additive prepared in this embodiment did not change, the egg production rate increased, the soft egg breakage rate and the chicken mortality rate decreased, antibiotics were not required, and vaccines were basically not required. The Haugh index of eggs was improved, cholesterol was significantly reduced, triglycerides were reduced, and there was no fishy smell. The total cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood of laying hens were reduced, the high-density lipoprotein content was increased, and the low-density lipoprotein content was reduced.

[0039] It can be seen that the eucommia leaf composite feed additive prepared by the preparation method of this embodiment not only has highly active ingredients, but also can improve the production performance of laying hens, increase the egg production rate of laying hens, reduce the rate of soft and broken eggs, maintain animal health, reduce total cholesterol, triglycerides, and low-density lipoprotein levels in the blood, increase the high-density lipoprotein content, and reduce its mortality rate without the use of antibiotics and vaccines.
