Abstract
A research was conducted to investigate the potency of inorganic selenium supplementation on serum, antioxidant and mineral indices of broiler chicks during heat stress. Two hundred and fifty six, 1-day old chicks were randomly allotted to four experimental treatments (0, 0.1 0.2 and 0.3 mg of Se/kg), with four replicates each in a Completely Randomized Design. Results indicated a similarity (P>0.05) among all treatment groups. In conclusion, during period of heat stress, selenium can be supplemented in the diet of broilers at levels ranging between 0.1-0.3mg/kg diet.
