The research was conducted to determine the effect of Mangosteen Peel Extract with mineral (MPEm) as a feed supplement to the production and egg quality of Sentul Chicken. Sentul Chicken is a local chicken of west java which have potential as dual-purpose chickens. This study used 40 female chickens. The method used was a completely random design with five treatments namely, P0 (basal ration), P1 (basal ration with 60 mg/kg MPEm), P2 (basal ration with 120 mg/MPEm, P3 (basal ration with 180 mg/kg MPEm, P4 (basal ration with 240 mg/kg MPEm) and repeated four times. The result showed that the use of MPEm in the ration was significant (p<0.05) on conversion ration, hen-day, egg weight, egg cholesterol, the color of egg yolk, and the thickness of eggshell but not significant on consumption ration, haugh unit, and yolk index score.
