Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of onion and garlic juice on the growth, redox balance, and carcass properties of broiler chickens. Total number of 150 Ross-308 broiler chicks, aged 1 day, were randomly assigned to five treatments . (30 chicks each divided to three  equal replicates ) The treatments were as follows: T1: (control treatment), T2 and T3 treated with onion juice which was added to drinking water in two concentrations (10 and 20ml /litter of drinking water, respectively), T4 and T5 given Garlic juice with two concentrations (10 and 20ml /litter of drinking water, respectively), Treatment started at the first three days of life for 5 weeks of age. The results demonstrated that the use of garlic juice during the first three days of life significantly increased (p<0.05) the broiler's final body weight (BW), decreased feed intake, mortality rate, and improved feed conversion ratio (FCR) in comparison to the control group. It also improved the broiler's redox balance, increasing the level of SOD, CAT, and TAC and decreased the  MDA value. Overall, the experiment's findings demonstrated that broiler growth performance and redox balance can both be enhanced by adding 10 and 20 ml of garlic juice to drinking water.
