A total of 30, dayold broiler chicks were distributed in 3 experimental groups fed control diet supplemented with 0.0%, 1%, and 2% fenugreek seed meal during tbe experimental period. At 45 days of the experiment, results indicated that supplementation of the diet with 1% fenugreek improved weight gain, feed conversion, antibody titer against New castle virus, and fat stability.
