Abstract
significantly (P > 0.05) affected by the inclusion of WSFLBM. Significant influences were not observed for total protein, albumin, globulin and alkaline phosphatase. However, the serum biochemical indices evaluated, showed that cholesterol, SGPT and SCOT were significantly (P < 0.05) affected as the level of WSFLBM increased. It was concluded based on data from WBC, RBC, MCV, MCH MCHC and those from serum biochemical indices evaluated that wild sunflower leaf- blood meal mixture could be incorporated up to 20% level in weaner rabbit ration.
