1. The present study was carried out to determine the effects of feeding ensiled alfalfa leaves (ALS) as an alternative protein source to laying hens under the terms of an organic diet. Due to the occurrence of unexpected negative health effects and undesirable egg yolk pigmentation in the test groups the trial was prematurely stopped and further analysis was conducted to evaluate the responsible substances. 2. Body weights of the test groups decreased significantly already in week 2 of the trial. Performance variables dropped. Olive green pigmented egg yolks were found in groups fed diets containing ALS. Severe comb necrosis occurred in the experimental group receiving the highest level of ALS (20%) combined with the option of free-range access and therefore natural light exposure. 3. The noxious agent found in ALS, blood serum and egg yolk was the photosensitising chlorophyll derivate pheophorbid a (PPBa), deriving from a strong depletion of chlorophyll contained in the alfalfa leaves. PPBa caused the olive-green pigmentation found in yolks and led to photosensitivity in groups with the highest level of ALS in the diet in combination with light exposure. 4. By aiming for high protein and amino acid levels, harvesting and processing have, unintentionally and initially unnoticed, led to a strong accumulation of phototoxic PPBa. From these results it is strongly advised not to include ensiled alfalfa leaves as a protein source in organic laying hen diets.
