Abstract
The study was conducted to evaluate the effects of graded levels of Oregano leaf powder on growth performance of broiler chickens in Sokoto, Northwestern Nigeria. Using Completely Randomised Design (CRD), a total of 300 day old broiler chicks were randomly allocated to four treatment groups consisting of 75 birds in each group. Each treatment was then sub-divided into 5 replicates consisting of 15 birds per replicate. T1, (15g Oregano), T2 (20g Oregano) T3 (25g Oregano) and T4 (0g Oregano) served as the control. The experiment lasted for 49 days.
