Abstract
This study conducted in one of the poultry fields of the Department of Animal Production/College of Agriculture/ University of Kirkuk, for the period from 2024/7/4 to 2024/8/8, In order to know the effect of adding clove bud powder and vitamin C as a heat stress reliever and its effect on the physiological performance and antioxidant status of broilers. 240 one-day-old ROSS 308 broiler chicks were used unsexed and the average initial weight was (39. 09) g. The chicks were randomly distributed into eight treatments with 3 replicates of 10 birds per replicate. The following experimental treatments :(T0) Diet alone is the initial course of treatment,(T1) Vitamin C 250g/tonne ,(T2) clove bud powder 250g/tonne Feed,(T3) clove bud powder 500g/tonne Feed, (T4) clove bud powder 1000g/tonne Feed ,(T5) clove bud powder 250g + 250g vitamin C tonne/Feed ,(T6) clove bud powder 500g + 250g vitamin C tonne/Feed ,(T7) clove bud powder 1000g + 250g vitamin C tonne/ Feed. The results showed significant differences (P ≤ 0.05) between the supplementation treatments and the control treatment in the average live body weight, the average weight gain, and the feed conversion ratio, which ranged between all supplementation treatments, and most of the weight increases occurred in the second treatment in almost all weeks. As for feed consumption, a significant decrease was observed in favor of the sixth treatment.This study conducted in one of the poultry fields of the Department of Animal Production/College of Agriculture/ University of Kirkuk, for the period from 2024/7/4 to 2024/8/8, In order to know the effect of adding clove bud powder and vitamin C as a heat stress reliever and its effect on the physiological performance and antioxidant status of broilers
