Abstract

Supplementation of herbs like Withania somnifera and Emblica officinalis to broilers through feed showed significant increase in Haemoglobin Concentration, Packed Cell Volume, Total Erythrocytes Count and Total Leucocytes Count. All the three treatment groups showed non-significant increase in Neutrophil, Lymphocyte, Monocyte and Basophil count as compared to T0 control group. However Eosinophil count showed the significant decrease in all the treatment groups.
