To find out the feeding value of detoxified simaruba (Simarouba glauca) oilcake in egg type growers, a feeding trial was conducted with 1750 grower chicks of 8 weeks of age, distributed in to seven dietary groups. Test diets T₁, T₂, T₃, T₄, T₅ and T₆ containing 0, 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5 and 15 percent NH₃ treated and roasted simaruba oilcake (TSOC) were prepared and fed to the experimental chicks from 9 to 16 weeks of age. Weekly individual body weight and group-wise feed consumption of birds were recorded and feed conversion ratio (FCR) was calculated at the end. The 16ᵗʰ week body weight of T₁, T₂, T₃, T₄, T₅ and T₆ were 1113, 1111, 1107, 1105, 1025 and 905 g, respectively showing no significant difference among the groups. However, birds of T₅ and T₆ groups showed significantly (P<0.05) lower as compared to other groups. The FCR of T₁, T₂, T₃, T₄, T₅ and T₆ groups were 5.48, 5.78, 5.75, 5.83, 6.16 and 7.25, respectively. The profit was the highest in T₄ group. The study revealed that TSOC could be fed to egg type growers up to a level of 10% without any adverse effect on the growth of the egg type growers.
