Özet

The present study was carried out to determine the effects of dietary ascorbic acid (AA) and vitamin E on performance and some hematological parameters of Japanese quails reared under high ambient temperature (32.9 to 36.1 degrees C). A total of 240 Japanese quails, 7 day old were randomly assigned to control and three experimental groups. They were fed with a basal diet or the basal diet supplemented with 500 mg/kg AA (group 1), 250 mg/kg vitamin E (group II) and 500 mg/kg AA+250 mg/kg vitamin E (group III).
