With a purpose to reutilize broiler manure, whole crop corn was ensiled with five treatments: control, three levels of broiler manure i.e. 15, 30, 45 percent, and 0.65 percent urea (based on dry matter of corn) as nitrogen source. Digestibility, palatability and nitrogen intake were determined in a feeding trial with five male sheep (Corridale). DM, crude protein and crude ash contents were increased when the levels of broiler manure was increased in the silage, while crude fiber and NFE were highly significantly decreased (p0.01). With the mixture of broiler manure in the silage, digestibility of crude protein and NFE was highly significantly increased (p0.01). DCP and TDN were the highest when the whole-crop was ensiled with 30 to 45 percent broiler manure. In conclusion, the whole-crop corn silage with broiler manure was qualified as a good feed in terms of digestibility, DM intake and palatability provided the corn was ensiled with 30 percent broiler manure
