- Abstract
This experiment was conducted in the Poultry Field of the Department animal Production at the Ministry of science and technology. 360 day-old chicks (Ross-308) were weighed and distributed randomly to 18 cages by six treatments, each treatment included three replicated for each repeater 20 birds. Medicinal plants were added to the diets with concentration as follows: (T1 control), Turmeric 0.2% (T4), Turmeric 0.4% (T3), cubeb 0.2% (T4), cubeb 0.4% (T5), Turmeric 0.2% + cubeb 0.2% (T6). Chicks were fed on a diet from 1-35 days of age. Results showed that the experimental diets significantly (p ≤ 0.05) increased the performance traits at which includes live body weight, weight gain, feed consumption and feed conversion comparing with the control treatment that recorded the lowest performance means. There were no significant variations between the experimental and the control treatment concerning dressing percent and carcass cuts.
