Calcium (Ca) and Phosphorus (P) is one of the key nutrients required for bone, egg quality, growth performance, layers and breeder. The Ca well over 90% found in the bone where it combines with P as second most important mineral element in bone, to from calcium phosphate crystals (Gordon & Roland, 1996) In feed nutrition other important element for body system including Na, Mg, Fe and Fi. In addition, phosphorus as essential component of almost all metabolic processes (McDonald et al., nd) The P content less than from Ca between 80 to 85% of the total phosphorus found in the bones function. Phosphates are used for metabolism and energy storage in formation of sugar phosphates and adenosine di-and tri-phosphates. Furthermore, P form part of a protein that contains phosphorus, nucleic acids and phospholipids (Driver, John Patrick, 1994).
