 ABSTRACT

Eighteen Malabari kids of three to six months of age were divided into three dietary treatments (T1, T2 and T3) of six animals each, based on age, sex and body weight to study the effect of dietary incorporation of Sukumara gritham residue on their blood biochemical profile. The animals in treatment T1 (control) were given standard kid starter ration as per ICAR (2013) while in group T2 and T3, Sukumara gritham residue was included to the level of 10 and 20 per cent, respectively. The heamatological parameters viz., haemoglobin and biochemical parameters, viz., total protein, AST, ALT, total cholesterol, total triglycerides, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine and albumin were found to be similar in all the groups after 90 days of feeding trial. Hence, Sukumara gritham residue could be safely included in the kid starter ration up to 20 per cent level without any adverse effect on blood biochemical parameters.

Keywords: Blood biochemical, Kid starter, Malabari goat kids, Sukumara gritham residue.
