Abstract
This study was examind the effect of different levels of Heracleum percicum essential oil on performance, egg quaility, immune response and some blood parameters in Japanese quails. 96 japanese quails at 60 days of ages were choosed randomly, and divided in to 4 treatments and each treatment contained 4 replication and each replication contained 6 birds. during 28 days, by using levels of Heracleum percicum essential oil (0, 20, 40, 60 mg/kg). In first to fourth weeks of production period, different levels of tretments of didnot have a significant effect on feed intake (FI) (p>0.05) , but during first, second and third weeks of the production period the amount of FI in all levels of treatments was numerically more than control group. During first, second, third, and fourth weeks of production, dietary feed conversion ratio (FCR) wasnot affected by treatments, and there werenot a significant difference between treatments. (p>0.05). The findings of the effects of different levels of Heracleum percicum on SRBC in Japanese quail showed that Heracleum percicum had a significant effect on antibody response against SRBC, so that levels of Heracleum percicum had less antibody than control group. Blood biochemical parameters (glucose, cholesterol, triglyceride, Calcium, Phosphorus, albumin, ALT, AST, total Protein) were significantly affected by experimental treatments (p<0.05), so that glucose in 60 mg/kg treatment had the least numerical value compared to the control group. Also According to the results all of the other parameters except triglyceride, ALT, AST, in all levels of treatments, had the least numerical value compared to the control group According to the results, Weight of egg, length of egg, width of egg, weigth of albumen and yolk, heigh of albumen, weigth of yolk, weigth of egg shell and thickness of the bottom of eggshell were not affected by experimental treatments (p>0.05). According to results, diameter of yolk, and thickness of the tip of eggshell and thickness of the middle of egg shell were affected by experimental treatmens.
