This study investigates the effectiveness of Clanis bilineata (Soybean hawkmoth) larvae (CBL) as a novel alternative for soybean meal in mature laying ducks (64 weeks old). In a randomized controlled trial, 120 ducks were allocated to control (soybean-based diet) and CBL groups (15.79% CBL replacing soybean meal), each comprising six replicates of 10 birds. Over 63 days, CBL supplementation significantly enhanced serum antioxidant defences, with superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activities increasing by 15.7% (
