BIO-EVALUATION OF HAEMATOLOGICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL INDICES OF BROILER CHICKENS FED MUNICIPAL ORGANIC WASTE DEGRADED WITH DIASTIC MICROBES FROM SNAIL (ACHATINA ACHATINA)

Résumé

A forty-two-day feeding trial sought to bio-evaluate the haematological and serum biochemical responses of broiler birds fed municipal organic wastes degraded with diastic microbes of Achatina achatina as part of formulated diets, using one-hundred-and-twenty-day-old broiler chicks. The day-old chicks (DOC) were assigned to four treatments diets of 30 birds per group; in three replications of 10 birds per replicate, in a completely randomized design (CRD). TA (control), TB (5%), TC (10%), and TD (15%) of degraded municipal organic wastes (DMOW) inclusion levels were assigned. There were no significant (P<0.05) differences in the haematological and biochemical indices. Reported significant differences in the serum biochemistry only occurred in protein profile, total cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein. Serum protein values were significantly (P<0.05) higher at 15%DMOW. Birds fed 5%DMOW had better (P<0.05) cholesterolic values. The results of the overall experiments indicated that DMOW can be fed to broilers without causing harm to the birds and humans when consumed
