| The study was aimed to know the effect of adding 3% of grind zingiber officinale or 8% of petroselinum sativum seeds in the concentrate diet (400g/head/ daily) of the Black Iraqi Does (19 does) in some physiological traits. Nineteen healthy weak-medium does were divided into three groups, the first group of 6 does fed concentrate diet containing zingiber, while in the second group (6) does were fed on a diet containing 8% grind petroselinum sativum seeds, however, the other does kept as control group and fed the concentrate diet free of the herbal medical additives during mid December 2009 up to end of May 2010. The results revealed that group, The first and second groups were highly significant (p>0.05) in their Hb and PCV during the late months of the study, also both feed additives caused significant (p>0.05) increase in WBCs, lymphocyte and monocytes ratio, while they caused significant decrease in neutrophils compared with the control group. The total serum protein and albumin of Animals of both groups fed herbal medicine were highly significant (p>0.05) in comparing with the control group.
