Abstract:
To investigate the effect of different levels of chamomile flower in the fodder mixture on some blood indicators in a private poultry farm, 90 km east of Deir Ezzor, in 2021, (400) chicks from the commercial hybrid Hybrid were used in the experiment. They were divided into four groups, each group containing (100). Chick, each group was divided into four replicates, each replicate included (25) chicks, all experimental birds were subjected to the same rearing conditions, except for the fodder mixture, where they were fed on a traditional fodder mixture to which chamomile was added at a rate of (0-500-1000-1500) g / kg, it continued The experiment was (49) days. The immune indicators of the birds were detected by conducting tests to detect gumboro, Newcastle, and bronchitis diseases (bronchitis). The mortality rate was twice during the experiment, once in the middle of the experiment at the age of 35 days, and once at the end of the experiment at the age of 49 days. The results showed a significant decrease. In the rate of pathological infection between the control group and the three experimental groups, the differences were significant in the second and third groups, compared with the first control group and the second group, to which 500 g chamomile was added per 100 kg of feed. Also, the mortality rate decreased in the experimental groups compared with the control, and the decrease was significant in the last group to which 1500 g chamomile was added per 100 kg of feed.
