Abstract

This study was conducted in the Poultry farm technical-Agriculture research center in Salah Aldeen to investigate amla and green tea extract effect to product performance and some blood parameters on Japanese quail. In total, 300 17 weeks old quail birds were used in this study and were randomly distributed into four treatments (three replicate each treatment (n=25). The treatment groups were control (basal diet) without supplement, 1% green tea extract (GT 1%), 1% amla (AM 1%) and 1% mixed (GT+AM 1%) respectively. The results show that amla extract improved egg production significantly (P≤0.05) compared to control. The egg weight and egg mass were not significant (P<0.05) between each group. Amla aqueous extract (1%) shows a significant difference in feed intake as compared to the control. Hematology traits revealed a significant increase in Red Blood Cell (RBC) and hemoglobin (Hb) in green tea and amla extracts compared with control and a significant difference was observed between the aqueous extract groups and control in PCV % value. The results showed that there are no significant differences between treatments in each of Total Protein, Albumin and Globulin, but the results indicated a significant decrease (P<0.05) of Triglyceride, Cholesterol and Glucose, in the treatments of amla and green tea aqueous extract compare the control treatment.
