Blood haematology of laying hens given fermented shrimp waste extract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of using fermented shrimp waste extract in the ration on the number of erythrocytes, hemoglobin levels, and hematocrit values of laying hens. The chickens used in this study were 30 weeks old laying hens, Hyline strain, as many as 20 chickens. This study used experimental methods and the research design used a completely randomized design (CRD) with five treatments, consisting of R0 (the ration without fermented shrimp waste extract), R1 (the ration containing 0.5% fermented shrimp waste extract), R2 (the ration containing 1.0% fermented shrimp waste extract), R3 (the ration contains 1.5% fermented shrimp waste extract) and R4 (the ration contains 2.0% fermented shrimp waste extract), each treatment was repeated four times. The observed variables were the number of erythrocytes, hemoglobin levels, and blood hematocrit values. The results showed that the use of fermented shrimp waste extract had no significant effect. Giving fermented shrimp waste extract as much as 0.5-2.0% in the ration resulted in the number of erythrocytes, hemoglobin levels, and blood hematocrit values of laying hens in the normal range, and the use of 0.5% was effective in producing the number of erythrocytes (2.65×106/mm3), hemoglobin levels (10.45 g/dL), and hematocrit value (28,25%) of laying hens’ blood.
