The current study aims to compare the effect of Cissus populnea (Guill & Perr) and Synedrella nodiflora (L.) Gaertn on reproductive traits and hemogram in rabbit do. Then, 60 nulliparous rabbits do and 12 males were divided into 3 lots. In lot 1, the animals hadn?t received any plant treatment. In lot 2, rabbits do and males were subjected to pellet feeds containing 10% of Cissus populnea dried leaves flour. In lot 3, rabbits do and males were subjected to pellet feeds containing 10% of Synedrella nodiflora dried leaves flour. It appears that the highest litter size was recorded in lot 2 and lot 3 (P˂0.001) while the highest live weights at birth, at 35 days and at 56 days old were found in lot 1. The greatest average daily gain (32.2 g/day) was recorded in animals of lot 3 (P˂0.01). The fertility rate of lot 2 and lot 3 was respectively 90% and 92.5%, to 85% in the control lot (P˂0.001). Concentration in white blood cells red blood cells, and hemoglobin, and the hematocrit were respectively 6.23x103/?L, 5.63 x106/?L, 11.3 g /Dl and 37.50% in rabbits in the control group, to 6.05x103/?L, 5.63 x106/?L, 11,55g /Dl and 38.85% in rabbits of lot 2 and 6.96x103/?L, 5.79x106/?L, 11.2 g / Dl and 37.3 % in rabbits of the lot 3. Overall, the main effect of leaves of Cissus populnea and Synedrella nodiflora is to increase litter size and to reduce kidding interval in rabbit does.
