| Abstract | ||
| This study was conducted in poultry farm of Animal Resources Department -College of Agriculture in University of Tikrit from 5 August 2008 to 1 March 2009 to study of correlation coefficients between some blood parameters and productivity characteristics in white Japanese quail . Using 120 birds from white Japanese quail which distributed to the families each family consist of one male and three females . The results appeared that the values of Packed Cell Volume ( PCV ), Red Blood Cell ( RBC ) , White Blood Cell ( WBC ) and Hemoglobin were 39.78 % , 2.43× 106 cell /mm3 , 25.36 ×103 cell /mm3 and 12.05gm/100ml respectively, while the values of the heritabilities 0.28 , 0.26 , 0.31 and 0.27 respectively .Also the results showed that the mean of egg weight and number of eggs produced during of 100 days from sexual maturity and egg mass were 10.95 g, 68.72 egg and 752.48 g respectively. There were highly significant correlation coefficients between Packed Cell Volume , Red Blood Cell , White Blood Cell and Hemoglobin with egg production characteristics of quality of this study while the White Blood Cell was positively correlated with egg production during of 100 days also the White Blood Cell was non significant correlated with the mean egg weight and egg mass . Key words : Japanese quail , egg production , blood character , heritabilities , correlations .
