| Abstract | ||
| This study was carried out in Animal field, College of Agriculture, University of Tikrit during the period from 11/3/2014 to 11/5/2014, to investigate the impacts of different levels of Parsley seeds (Petroselinium crispum) on physiological performance of Japanese quail. The total number of the experimental birds (94) were divided into four treatments (24 birds each). Each treatment contained 3 replicates of 8 birds. The experimental treatments were T1 as control (without Parsley seeds supplementation), T2, T3 and T4 include (0.5, 1 and 1.5) % of Parsley seeds respectively. Results showed that birds fed of parsley had no significantly differs (P<0.05) among treatments in uric acid, ALT, RBC count, liver weight % and heart weight %. T2 showed significantly lower in albumin concentration. The birds fed of parsley showed significantly lower in cholesterol concentration but T4 showed significant increase in AST, Triglycerides and WBC count although T4 showed significantly lower in PCV and ovary weight %. T3 and T4 showed significant increase in body weight, T2 showed significant in ova duct weight %. In conclusion, supplementing the ration with parsley significant improvement in most of blood traits and physiological performance of Japanese quails. | ||
