Digestibility and utilization of nutrients in leucaena leaves (LL), water-soaked Leucaena leaves (WSL) and mild extruded water-soaked Leucaena leaves mixed with cassava (MEWSLC) were studied in broilers. Digestible energy (DE) and metabolizable energy (ME) of MEWSLC were significantly (P0.05) higher than that of LL. Effects of mild extruded water-soaked leucaena leaves mixed with cassava meal (MEWSLCM) in broiler diets. Increasing levels of MEWSLCM in the diets linearly decreased (p0.05) performance of the broilers and significantly (P0.05 increased shank color scores. The broilers on diet containing 30 percent MEWSLCM had the highest shank color score. Effects of mild extruded water-soaked leucaena leaves mixed with cassava meal at 10 or 20 percents in corn, sorghum or cassava based broiler diets. Broilers fed the sorghum and cassava diets containing 10 and 20 percent of MEWSLC were lower than those fed corn diets and the differences were statistically significant. Increasing levels of MEWSLCM in the diets linearly decreased performance of the broilers.
