The present study was carried out to record the status of different blood and serum biochemical parameters of White Leghorn chicken at high ambient temperature. A total of 18 birds (9 birds of each sex) of 20 weeks age were used in the study. The heterophil: lymphocyte (H:L) ratio indicated that the birds were experiencing heat stress due to high ambient temperature. Significant difference was observed between the sexes in haemoglobin, total erythrocyte count, heterophils, H:L ratio, calcium and lipid peroxidation levels. Results of this study revealed that high ambient temperature induces stress that affects the sexes differently in chicken as evident from their blood profile. ICAR-DPR |
