Abstract :Poultry management is associated with light due to positive effects of photoreceptors on animal’s growth, immunity and homeostasis. Colors influence the efficiency of poultry performance and behavior. Light-emitting diode insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(LED); can use for providing monochromatic light source. In this trial, two hundred Ross 308 broiler chicks were studied in four different light groups as follows; White insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Control);, Red insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(RL);, green insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(GL); and blue insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(BL); during 42 trial days. At the end of the study, the serum Superoxide dismutase insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SOD);, Catalase insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(CAT);, Glutathione Peroxidase insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(GPx); and malondialdehyde insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(MDA); enzyme activities were measured to evaluate the oxidant-antioxidant balance. The oxidant marker MDA was found the highest value in group RL insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p:0.0001 ; 9.24±0.33);. On the other hand, in group GL, all antioxidant parameters were found the highest value insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05);.  Also, SOD and GPx values were increased in group GL insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SOD: 150.61±9.14 ; GPx: 186.96±10.50);  than BL insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SOD: 139.29±5.19 ; GPx: 160.02±3.15); statistically insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05);. The results showed that red light may be a stressor, and on the contrary, green light may be a positive monochromatic color for growth, oxidant-antioxidant balance and homeostasis for broilers.
