Abstract
1. Grouped laying hens were fed on experimental diets containing dried tomato pulp (DTP) at inclusion rates up to 120 g/kg and two control diets (A and A+Carophyll). 2. The addition of DTP did not significantly affect egg production, food consumption and efficiency, egg weight and shell thickness. 3. There was a significant improvement in the egg yolk colour in treatments containing DTP. However, this improvement was significantly lower in comparison to the diet which contained carophyll.
