Effect of the Nucleotide and Turmeric Extract Supplementation and different Cage Floors on the Blood Profile and Physiological Status of Broiler Chicken

Climate change has been responsible for the high prevalence of heat stress (HS) among broiler chickens. In this research, efforts are made to curb negative impact HS on chickens by modifying feed and cage floor. The blood profile physiological responses supplemented with nucleotide turmeric powder kept in different floor cages were recorded (litter, slatted, combination slat-litter). A total 245 day-old chicks (DOC) randomly allotted seven treatment groups combined supplementation extract types slate, slat-litter) 35-day maintenance. Each was replicated five times. into did not significantly affect (P>0.05) body temperature, respiratory rate, pulse lien index, PVC, TPP, heterophils, lymphocyte, monocyte, but affected (P<0.05) erythrocyte level, hemoglobin, leukocyte, rectal temperature index bursa fabricius broilers. Results study concluded that treatments supplementing using slat-floored tend reduce comfort
