Abstract: The experiment was conducted to study the effect of copper toxicity on blood findings in chickens. 180 one-day-old Avian broilers were divided into three groups, and fed on diets as follow: (1)control (Cu 11.92 mg/kg),(2)copper toxic I (Cu 650 mg/kg) and (3)copper toxic Ⅱ ( Cu 850 mg/kg) for six weeks. The signs began to appear at the 2nd week in copper toxic group Ⅱ and at the 3rd week in copper toxic group I. Some of affected chickens died during the experiment. Hematopathologically, red cells in toxic groups I and II became deformed. The populations of red cells, hemoglobin contents and serum caeruloplasmin activity were much lower, and the serum copper concentrations, activities of lactate dehydrogenase and glutamicoxaloacetic transaminase were much higher in copper toxic groups than in control group. Mechanism of copper toxicity on blood findings is also discussed .
