Fresh water alga, Enteromorpha procera was used as nutrition supplement for broiler chicks. Four concentrations of alga] material at 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% were mixed with commercial feed of chicks (starter and finisher feed). Feeding experiments were performed for ten weeks. Biochemical parameters (ash, carbohydrate, fat, protein and water content) of liver of chicks fed on different algal compositions as well as control feed were also examined. It was observed that the birds, which were fed on higher concentration i.e. (20%) of algal feed, showed best results in terms of quality and quantity of meat. The mortality rate was only 10%.
