The study assessed the effect of goat waste (faces) feeding on carcass characteristic and meat quality in broilers. Four iso-nitrogenous experimental diets viz. basal diet, D1 (CP, 21.18%; CF, 2.3%; ME, 2865 kcal/kg), dried goat waste replacing energy feed ingredients (rice bran totally and maize partially) viz: D2 (10%), D3 (20%) and D4 (30%) and another four with inclusion of 0.4 g enzyme feed supplement per kg diet and designated as E1, E2, E3 and E4 were formulated, respectively. At the end of 49 days of experimental period 6 birds from each treatment making a total of 48 birds were selected randomly and slaughtered for evaluation of carcass characteristics and meat quality. Addition of dried goat waste to the diet did not cause any adverse effect on the percent evisceration carcass and ready-to-cook carcass yield of broilers. However, significant reduction in carcass yield was observed at higher inclusion level of dried goat waste. Enzyme supplementation did not cause any beneficial effect on eviscerated carcass yield of broilers. Addition of dried goat waste with or without enzyme supplement showed insignificant effect on organs weight. Inclusion of dried goat waste as well as enzyme addition in diets did not cause any significant effect on percent dry matter and crude fat content of meat, although significant increased the protein content of broiler meat.
