Abstract
This study conducted to find out the effect of the use of chamomile flower oil, vitamin E and
selenium on some blood traits of white New Zealand rabbit males. Twenty males were used in this study at the age of six months; the animals were randomly distributed into four groups
of five rabbits in each group. The first group was represented by a control without any
treatment, the second group was dosed with rabbits (200 mg chamomile flower oil / rabbit/
day), the third group was dosed with rabbits (400 mg chamomile flower oil / rabbit/ day) and
the fourth group was dosed with rabbits (vitamin E 250 mg/ kg + selenium 0.3 mg/ day) kg/
per day). The results of the statistical analysis of blood parameters showed that the third
treatment (400 chamomile) was significantly superior (p≤0.05) to the rest of the coefficients
in the total red corpuscular count for the second month. While the total white corpuscular
count, the packed cells volume and hemoglobin concentration was the moral superiority in
the first and second months and the total count of platelets, the superiority was limited to the
first month only.
