Feed intake, egg production, egg weight and the rate of egg lay were determined daily throughout the experiment. Relative liver weight was measured and tissues were collected for chemical analyses and pathological examination at the end of experiment. The results showed that the consumption of feed increa-led significantly (P<0.05) during the experifeht, egg production reduced significantly (P<0.05) after 30 days and hen livers were injured. Health and performance were affected adversely. However, the elemental concentrations of six metals (Cd, Pb, Hg, Ni, Cu and Zn) in eggs and breast muscle did not increase significantly. %U http://www.alljournals.cn/get_abstract_url.aspx?pcid=3FF3ABA7486768130C3FF830376F43B398E0C97F0FF2DD53&cid=A7CA601309F5FED03C078BCE383971DC&jid=64CD0AA99DD39F69401C615B85F123EF&aid=8016A09C5EFBE562D4344A4CB6B3F585&yid=0702FE8EC3581E51&iid=E158A972A605785F&sid=F3090AE9B60B7ED1&eid=FC0714F8D2EB605D&journal_id=0250-3301&journal_name=环境科学&referenced_num=0&reference_num=0
