This study was carried out to evaluate the efficacy of Fenugreek seeds (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) on overall performance of broiler. A total of 96-day old Cobb-500 chicks were randomly divided into four dietary treatment groups namely 0, 1, 2 and 3 having three replications in each treatment group. Brooded chicks were randomly separated into replications wise separate pen to rear up to 4 weeks. Each treatment group contains 24 birds (8 birds in each replication). Experimental birds in 1, 2 and 3 were provided fenugreek seeds meal with 0.5%, 1% and 1.5% of feed while 0 was provided with standard feed and considered as control group. The results of this study were indicated that final live weight gain and feed efficiency of birds was significantly (P<0.05) higher in 3 compared to 2, 1 and 0 respectively. The result also indicated that feed efficiency was increased at dose rate of 1.5% fenugreek seeds meal in 3 compared to 2 1 and control 0 group respectively. In case of meat yield parameters there was significant (P<0.05) difference among treatment groups except liver weight. The carcass weight was significantly (P<0.05) higher in 3 group compared to the control group. The lowest feed cost was found in 0 and highest profit in 3 group. Based on the current study, it is concluded that fenugreek seed meal at a dose of 1.5% can be used as growth promoter for the production of broiler chicken.
