This study conducted in the Physiological Laboratory of the Department of Animal Production/College of Agriculture/Tikrit University, with the aim of finding out the effect of the genotype and sex of local chickens and Brahma chickens on some hematological traits. Used 24 blood samples, twelve samples from local chickens and Brahma chicken, with six samples for both sexes. After performing the hematological analyzes, the following results showed A significant effect of the genotype was observed in the TCH, HB, MCV and MCH. Moreover, it showed a significant increasing for domestic chickens compared to Brahma chickens. The total number of red and white blood cells did not significantly affect the genotype. Sex had a significant effect on most of the studied traits (HCT, HB, RBC, MCV, and, MCHC), where males significantly outperformed females. The interaction between genotype and sex had a noteworthy impact (p≤ 0.05) on most ofthe considered characteristics, and it by and large demonstrated a noteworthy diminish within the examined characteristics in female Brahma chickens compared to male and female residential chickens and indeed male Brahma. However, not effect in WBC count. From the results local chickens recorded to exceed expectations in most of the physiological characteristics and for both genders, the immune status of both genetic structure was rise to, and this may show the versatility of the Brahma chickens to the Iraqi airspace.
