| Abstract | The purpose of this research work was to evaluate the seed extract (aqueous) on the visceral organs of broiler chicks. One hundred and sixty, day old broiler chicks were randomly assigned to four treatments A, B, C and D. Each treatment was replicated four times with ten chicks per replicate. Group A, B, C received the aqueous extract of Fenugreek @ 10, 20 and 30 ml/L, respectively while group D served as a control. Chicks were reared in cages (3 × 4 feet) in an open sided house. Data were recorded for. Statistical analyses were conducted, using Completely Randomized Design and MSTATC programme. Liver weight was not significant in any group, however, it was higher in group B and C. Gizzard weight though did not increased however, in treated group it was higher than control. In contrast intestines weight was higher in control group as compared to treated groups. It was concluded from this study that aqueous extract of Fenugreek has amply good effect on the weight on visceral organs which are second to none in importance in both taste and popularity among the people. |
