Effect of adding ginger root Bowder to diets of Different Percent of Barley to Roughage on Blood Components of Awassi Lambs

Abstract

This study was carried out in felid of Animal Science Department at Tikrit University .By used Twenty individually feeding Awassi lambs live-weight is 25.49 kg ,with ages from 3 -4 months old were used in a 2X2 factorial experiment to study the effect of feeding two level of parley to the roughage( 60% parley with 40% roughage or 40% parley with 60% roughage) with two level of ginger( o&5 gm/kg dm) on performance . Barley mixed with alfalfa were offered to lambs at rate of 3.5% of live weight. N0 significant effect for level concentrate to the roughage feed (B:R) or add ginger or interaction between them for packed blood cells volume , hemoglobin and red blood cell numbers. There was significant effect for high barley with low roughage and ginger for white blood cells (3.49 , 3.39 10 x3 cells/ml blood) . Interaction showed significant decreased for lambs fed high barley with low roughage . there was no significant effect for level of the barley to the roughage feed (B:R) or add ginger or interaction between them for cholesterol, urea, total protein, Rate of blood sugar was decreased for lambs fed on a high barley with low roughage 35.50 mg / 100 ml blood).
