dc.description.abstractThis study was carried out to determine the growth performance of broiler chickens (0-4wks old) fed different hourly soaked doum palm (Hyphaene thebaica) pulp meal diets. A total of 198 day-old broiler chicks were randomly allotted to six treatments. Each treatment consisted of 33 birds with three replicates of eleven birds each in a completely randomized design (CRD). Six experimental diets were formulated as follows: T1 (Control) was 0 % of doum palm pulp meal while diets T2, T3, T4, T5 and T6 had 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 hours soaked doum palm pulp meals respectively. Feeds and water were provided ad libitum. Significant (p<0.05) differences were observed in final weight, weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion ratio. Birds fed diet T6 differs significantly (p<0.05) in weight gain (736.67 g/bird) and feed conversion ratio (1.10). Birds fed diets T3, T4 and T5 had similar (p>0.05) values of weight gain (700.98, 726.72, 690.90) with T1 (701.31 g/bird) in terms of weight gain. T2 had significantly (p<0.05) lower mean value of weight gain (641.37) compared to other treatments. Feed cost per weight gain (N/G) showed that birds fed diet T4 and T6 had significantly (p<0.05) lowest cost of production ((N189.52 and N173.45) than other treatments. It was concluded that 4 to 10 hours soaked doum palm pulp meal diets could be used in broiler starter diets without any adverse effects on growth performance.en_US
