چکیده

A biological experiment of six weeks duration, followed by several laboratory investigations were carried out to study the effect of designer layer mash (DLM) containing full fat flaxseed, oil rich sardine fish, Holy Basil leaf meal (BLM), vitamin E and Organic selenium (Sel-plex), on haematology of layers. Both designer diet and BLM had significant effect on haematology of layers. They also exhibited a synergistic effect. The RBC levels in hens were significantly increased both by the DLM and BLM supplementation. The WBC count was increased significantly by DLM alone, but not due to BLM. The Hb level was not influenced by any of the dietary treatments.
