  1. 1Processed animal protein (feather meal protein, blood product, poultry meal, 5/3/7 g.kg–1).
  2. 2Vegetable oils: rapeseed oil and linseed oil.
  3. 3Plant proteins: COM: soy concentrate, soybean meal, rapeseed meal, peeled fava bean and wheat. PB1: wheat gluten, hydrolysed wheat gluten, pea protein, fava bean protein concentrate, soy concentrate, wheat. PB2: pea protein, corn gluten, soybean meal, guar meal, peeled fava bean. ISY1: a fraction of wheat gluten, pea protein, fava bean protein, soy concentrate and wheat as well as a fraction of rapeseed oil and linseed oil were substituted by the insect-spirulina-yeast fraction. ISY2: a fraction of pea protein, corn gluten, soybean meal, guar meal, peeled fava bean and wheat as well as a fraction of rapeseed oil and linseed oil were substituted by the insect-spirulina-yeast fraction.
