Abstract: The current study was conducted to investigate the hematological and biochemical parameters of Narmadanidhi birds supplemented with thyme oil, cinnamon oil, and clove oil at dosage rates of 150 and 300 ppm of the basal diet. A total of 210 day old Narmadanidhi chicks were divided into 7 groups (T₁, T₂, T₃, T₄, T₅, T₆ and T₇) with 6 replicates of 5 chicks in each for a 98-day feeding trial. The haematological parameters (Hb, TEC, TLC and PCV) and biochemical parameters (glucose, cholesterol, total protein, albumin, globulin, SGPT and SGOT) were analyzed. The haematological parameters like Hb and TEC were significantly (p<0.05) changed in treatment groups whereas no significant (p<0.05) change observed in TLC and PCV. The biochemical parameter like glucose, cholesterol, total protein, albumin, globulin, SGOT and SGPT were found significantly (p<0.05) changed in treatment groups. Based on the results of this study, it could be concluded that essential oils at a level 150 and 300 ppm of basal diet no detrimental impact on hematological and biochemical parameters of Kadaknath birds.
