The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of feed containing Golden Apple Snail (Pomacea canaliculata) meal and Azolla pinnata meal on the digestive organs of laying quails to determine the safety of using these two feed ingredients. The experiment used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with four treatments and five replications, each replication consisting of four laying quails, and from each replication one bird was randomly selected for digestive-organ observation. The treatments were: P0, control feed without Golden Apple Snail or Azolla pinnata meal; P1, feed containing 10% Azolla pinnata meal; P2, feed containing 10% Golden Apple Snail meal; and P3, feed containing 10% Azolla pinnata meal and 10% Golden Apple Snail meal. Data were analyzed using a one-way CRD, and when significant differences were found, Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) was applied. The results showed that inclusion of 10% Golden Apple Snail meal, 10% Azolla pinnata meal, or their combination in the diet of laying quails had no significant effect on the percentage weight of the ventriculus, liver, heart, or intestinal length, and all internal organs appeared normal. These findings indicate that Golden Apple Snail and Azolla pinnata are safe to use as alternative protein sources in quail feed.
