Abstract:
A study was undertaken to evaluate the blood glucose level of broiler breeder hens supplemented with fenugreek seed and Galactomannan Depleted Fenugreek Residue (GDFR). The evaluation was based on series of biological trial and chemical analyses. In a broiler breeder trial, 4320 numbers of thirty three weeks old Vencobb 400-Y strain were distributed randomly to nine treatments and each treatment had five replicates and each replicate had 96 birds. Supplementation of fenugreek seed or GDFR up to 4% in broiler breeder decreased the blood glucose level. The blood glucose level was decreased at all level of fenugreek seed supplementation and when GDFR was supplemented 2% and above.
