Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of Ferulla alliacea resin and wire copper oxide on internal parasite control as well as growth performance of Baluchi fattening lambs. Towenty-five Baluchi lambs, aged 6 to 7 months and weighed 20 ± 5 kg on average, were selected as trial sample. The experiment was done using completely randomized design with five groups as treatments replicated five times for 60 days. Treatments consisted of 1) control ( without additive), 2) Ferulla alliacea resin, 3) copper oxide wire, 4) combination of copper and Ferulla alliacea resin, 5) albendazole (anti parasite druge). During the experiment period, some parameters such as EPG (the number of eggs per gr of feces) and PCV (hematocrit equivalent) were measured at 0, 15, 30, 45 and 60 day of experiment, as well as weight gain weekly. According to the results, body weight changes were significant in 3^th, 4^th, 5^th and 7^th weeks (p<0.05). No significant difference was observed for PCV at all times. In addition, it appeared that copper oxide, Ferulla alliacea resin and albendasole had the same effect on decreasing EPG on 60^th d. In addition,. The combination of Ferulla alliacea resin and copper oxide effectively reduced EPG in a shorter time (45^th d) . The findings showed that Ferulla alliacea and copper oxide can be used as control of internal parasites in sheep, especially in organic systems.
