Abstract
The current investigation was conducted to investigate the effects of different particle sizes of corn and stocking densities on performance, carcass traits and gastrointestinal tract (GIT) development of Muscovy ducks in housing. 200 Muscovy ducks were distributed in a factorial scheme (2 × 2) where the treatments were constituted by two stocking densities (2 or 3 birds/m2) and two particle sizes of corn (6 or 8 mm), with five replicates of 10 birds each. At 1, 35, 70, and 90 days old, Muscovy ducks were slaughtered to evaluate the development of heart and GIT. Muscovy ducks managed in the density of 3 birds/m2 presented higher (P < 0.05) GIT development, performance and carcass traits regardless of age evaluated. In the same way, Muscovy ducks fed diets using a particle size of corn of 6 mm (Mean Geometric Diameter (MGD) = 781 μm) presented higher (P < 0.05) GIT development, performance and carcass traits regardless of age evaluated. Conclusively, the stocking density of 3 birds/m2 and the particle size of corn of 6 mm (MGD = 781 μm) were considered ideal recommendations for Muscovy ducks, providing higher GIT development, which resulted in better performance and carcass traits.

Abstract
O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a compactação da cama; empenamento e incidência de lesões nas carcaças de frangos de corte criados sobre diferentes tipos de camas. Foram utilizados 2592 pintos de um dia, sexados, da linhagem Ross®, distribuídos em delineamento casualizado, em esquema fatorial 2 x 6,, sendo dois sexos (macho e fêmea) e seis substratos de cama (Bagaço de cana; Maravalha; Casca de arroz; Capim Napier; Bagaço de cana + Casca de arroz e Bagaço de cana + Maravalha). Semanalmente foi avaliada a compactação da cama do aviário, utilizando-se um penetrômetro. Aos 31, 38 e 45 dias de idade avaliou-se o empenamento do dorso e da coxa das aves, atribuindo notas de 0 a 10, segundo o grau de empenamento. Aos 42 dias as aves foram abatidas e identificada a presença de hematomas, arranhões, dermatite e lesões de coxim plantar. Não houve influência do tipo de cama na incidência de arranhões, hematomas, lesões de coxim plantar e dermatite. A maior incidência de lesões de coxim plantar ocorreu nas aves criadas sobre cama de Napier e a menor, naquelas alojadas sobre a Maravalha. O sexo influenciou significativamente a incidência da dermatite e lesões de coxim plantar, sendo os machos mais afetados que fêmeas.
