Abstract
The present experiment aimed to study the effect of feed supplementation with different level of Iraq locally probiotic on some blood charactcistic of Ross broiler chicks. Atotal of 420 Ross broiler chicks, were randomly allocated into four feed treatment groups. Chicks in T1 were fed on standard broiler starter and finisher diets. Chicks in T2, T3 and T4 were fed on standard diets supplemented with 4, 6, and 8 kg probiotic per ton of feed respectively. The experiment were started in 28 – 2 – 2004 and lasted in 23 – 4 – 2004 and the following characteristic were tested: Packed Cell volume (PCV), hemoglobin concentration in serum, Red blood cells count, white blood cell a count, Hetrophille to Lymphocyte ration, and the concentration of serum protein and cholesterol. The result showed that diet supplementation with probiotic at the level of 6,8 kg / ton were significantly (P>0.01) increased the values of PCV, hemoglobin concentration, red blood count and decreased the H/L ratio in the blood of broiler Serum protein concentration in T2 and T3 were significantly (P<0.01) higher when compared with control and T4 groups . All the levels of probiotic in the died cause a significant (P>0.01) decrease in serum cholesterol. The overall data suggest that diet supplementation with probiotic at the level of 4,6,and 8 seemed to improved the blood picture of broiler chicks.
