Abstract

This study was conducted at the poultry farm, Department of Animal Resource, College of Agriculture University of KUFA The period from 15th of November to 27th December 2010. The experiment aimed to investigate the effect of deferent types of oils on some productive and physiological traits of broilers chicken through the period of study. Three hundred and twenty unsexed one day old chick (Ross 308) average weight 40g/chick. The chicks were reared on aground and feeding one diet. They were randomly allocated 4 treatments groups, each comprising 4 replicates of 20 chicks. The treatments T1, T2, T3 added 1% animal bone fat, animal fat and fish fat respectively but Tc its standard diet.The most important result can be summarizing.1-Birds in T1 and T2 have a higher (p<0.05) body weight means at 6 weeks of age, and total weight gain means during the period (1-6) weeks of age compared with T3 and Tc.2-During the period (1-6) weeks of age feed intake and feed conversion efficiency values ratio where significantly (p<0.05) improved in all treatments as compared with Tc (control).3-Mortality was no significantly in all treatments.4-Blood traits PCV, Hb, glucose, cholesterol and protein were no significantly different among treatment.
