Abstract
The investigational trials were conducted on day-old, total ninety chicks of broilers and indigenous (IND) poultry breeds in controlled conditions to analyze some hematological parameters. Water and basal diet were provided ad libitum. The experiment was carried out for 20 weeks. A total of 40 blood samples 20 for each breed were collected in a randomized manner through a brachial cut at the end of the trial. Hematological parameters, i.e., RBCs (106/μl), WBCs (103/μL), Lymphocytes (103/μL), Monocytes (103/μL), PLTs (103/μL), Hb (g/dL), Ht (%), MCV (fL), MCH (pg), and MCHC (g/dL) were analyzed. Two-tailed Student t-test was applied to compare the means (p 0.05) noted in both breeds in Ht, MCV, MCH, and MCHC parameters.
