2 Abstract: The effect of water restriction on haematology and serum biochemistry of broiler chickens was investigated. A total of ninety six 4-week old Anak broiler birds were used for this study. The birds were divided into 4 treatment groups and within each group, replicated three times at 8 birds per replicate. Different quantities of water were fed to the birds as treatments, that is, ad libitum (T ), 3.2 liters (T ), 2.2 liters o 1 (T ), 1.2 liters (T ) per day in a completely randomized design (CRD) experiment. The results show that the 2 3 haematological values were significantly influenced (P 0.05) for Alkaline phosphatase and Aspartate transaminase enzyme activity but Alanine transaminase showed significant differences (P 0.05) between the treatments. |
