Four separate experiments were conducted to study the effects of different levels four kind legume seeds wastes (Chick pea, Mung bean, Navy bean, Red bean) on the performance of broiler chicks. This experiment were conducted based on a completely randomized design with 320 one day-old broilers of male Ross strain with four inclusion rates (0, 10, 20 and 30 %) and four replications (per replicate 20 broilers) for 42 days by each of legume seeds wastes. In this study weight gain, feed intake, feed conversion efficiency, mortality and carcass analysis characteristic were measured. The metabolizable energy value of legume seeds wastes were determined by precision-fed procedure according to the bioassay methods described by Sibbald. The AMEn value of Chick pea, Mung bean, Navy bean, Red bean seeds were 2648, 2727, 1954, 2203 kcal/kg DM, respectively. In this study feed intake and weight gain in the treatments containing Chickpea and Mung bean seeds wastes in comparison with the control diet were increased (p0.01) and feed conversion ratio, were not significant difference with the control diet (p0.05). The results of the experiment indicated that we can use Chick pea and Mung bean seeds level up to 30% in broiler diets and level up to 10% of red bean seeds in starter period and up to 20% in grower period (p0.01). These results have shown that different levels of Navy bean seeds caused a reduction weight gain, feed intake and increase feed conversion efficiency in broiler, therefore can not be use in broiler diets (p0.05).
