ABSTRACT:
Provided by the invention are methods and compositions for increasing the growth rate and feed efficiency of turkeys by administration of an effective amount of the intermediate synthesis compound 19-nortestosterone. It has also been found that the invention provides increased muscle mass in the resulting turkey carcasses with a decreased percentage of fat mass and substantially no increase in skeletal growth over that of control turkeys.
