Abstract
This article discusses different methods for diagnosing stress response in broiler chickens and the effect of stress-correcting drugs on stress indicators. Stocking rate was used as a stressor in our study. Its increase has a significant effect on the antioxidant status of the chick’s body. The addition of anti-stress drugs to broiler diets reduces the negative effect of stressors. The assessment of stress sensitivity using the tonic immobility method is promising for the prevention of mortality in poultry production.
