Then, live (B?, Clone and Lasota) and inactivated Newcastle disease vaccines were used at ?, ?, ??, ?? and ?? days of age by spray, eye drop, drinking and injection methods. The birds were fed with diets containing different levels of rosemary powder (?.?, ?, ?.? %) till to ?? days of age as starter diet.
