A STUDY OF EFFECT SUPPLEMENTATION VARIOUS LEVELS OF BOSWELLIA SERRATA POWDER TO RATION OF BROILER CHICKENS ON SOME PRODUCTIVE AND HEMATOLOGY TRAITS

This research was conducted to regulate the influence of adding different levels of Boswellia serrata into diet on some productive and physiological traits of broiler chickens. The analysis involved 375 Ross 308 chicks divided into 5 treatments of 3 replicates each, and each treatment groups constituted 75 chicks. Boswellia serrata powder was accompanied to the diet of broiler throughout the total period of experiment which persisted 42 days at standard of 0 (C), 1 (BS1), 1.5 (BS1.5), 2 (BS2), and 2.5 (BS2.5) g / kg. Productive parameters which involved body weight (BW), body weight gain (BWG), feed consumption (FI) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) were recorded each week thru the period of experiment. From each replica, three birds were slaughtered at the age of 42 days to analyses the homological traits which included erythrocyte numbers (RBC), hemoglobin concentration (Hb), packed cell volume (PCV) and blood plasma concentrations of total protein, calcium, glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides. Results showed that the (BS2.5) treatment 2.5 g/ kg diet traveled substantial progress (P0.05) in growth performance traits (body weight, weight gain and feed conversion ratio), homological characters (Red blood cell, Hemoglobin, Packed cell volume, Total protein) and decreased (p>0.05) (feed intake, glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides) in comparison with (C) group, moreover, BS2, BS1.5 and BS1showed sequentially improved after BS2.5 group. It was consummated that broiler chicken's that dieted Boswellia serrata particularly (BS2.5) might have emphatically affect on growth performance and hematological characteristics of the broilers.
