Abstract
The aim of our study was to compare the morphological parameters of mink blood from animals fed normally and in a limited way. One-year old females from pastel morph were selected into two groups, 30 individuals each. Group K was the control group. The energetic value for 1 kg of group K feed was 1260 Kcal/EM; protein 46.2% EM; fat 41.3% EM; carbohydrates 12.5% EM. Experimental Group D was fed limited feeds from 15 IV–10 V. The dose of feed was 100g/individual/day. The energetic value for 1 kg was 1080 Kcal/EM, protein 48.8%, fat 37.8%; carbohydrates 13.4%. The following indices were determined in the animals’ blood: number of erythrocytes, haemoglobin concentration, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular haemoglobin, mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration and number of leucocytes and platelets. All parameters except the hematocrite were physiological for minks. The results did not show any effect of short termed restricted diet on blood parameters of adult females.
