Abstract
This study was conducted to determine the growth performance and blood indices of pullet chickens subjected to varying levels of neem (Azadirachta indica) leaf meal (NLM. One hundred and seventeen 4-weeks old ISA brown chicks were randomly selected and allotted to three treatments. The birds were subdivided into three groups based on the neem inclusion levels (0, 0.5 and 1.0 % NLM). Each group consists of thirty nine randomly selected birds and three replicates of thirteen birds. The birds were weighed on weekly basis to determine growth performance. Blood analyses were carried out on the eight week. The experiment was arranged in a one-way analysis of variance. Inclusion of NLM up to 1.0% in the diet of pullets had no significant (p>0.05) effect on growth performance indices except protein intake. Hematological parameters of the birds were not influenced (p>0.05) by NLM inclusion level except mean corpuscular volume and mean corpuscular hemoglobin. It was concluded that up to 1.0% NLM could be included in the diets of pullet chickens without deleterious effect in their growth performance and blood constituents.
