| Abstract | ||||
| The study aimed to evaluate the impact of using different levels of Fenugreek seed meal on growth performance and carcass traits of broiler chicks, 144 unsexed broiler chicks (ROSS) were distributed into four groups, each with 36 chicks, at random distribution in four replicates 9 chicks each. The first group designated as a control group and received a standard diet. While groups 2, 3, and 4 (T1, T2, and T3) received 5%, 10%, and 20% Fenugreek seed meal, respectively. The experimental period lasted for five weeks. The main results demonstrated significant differences in the parameters assessed included live body weight (LBW), body weight gain (BWG), feed intake (FI), feed conversion ratio (FCR), performance index (PI), and the European productive efficiency factor (EPEF) between treatments at five weeks of age. The percentage of carcass weight was significantly lighter in birds (T1, T2, and T3) treatments than in the control. All slaughter parameters were significantly affected by the different dietary treatments except heart and neck percentages. | ||||
