Abstract :
A total of 126 broiler finishers were fed diets
containing millet as the major source of energy. Three
diets were formulated to contain 0% of the millet as
whole grain to serve as control (Diet 1). Diet 2 contained
50% of the millet as whole grain while Diet 3 had its
millet as 100% whole grain. The study was conducted to
determine the effect of whole grain millet on the
performance of the birds. The three treatments were
replicated three times each. Results showed that feed
intake, water intake, body weight gain and feed
conversion ratio were not significantly affected (P>0.05)
by feeding portions of millet as whole grain in the diet
