ABSTRACT
Chicken production faces unsustainable supply of quality and affordable feeds. Prosopis pods could be used as an alternative livestock feed ingredient. A study was designed to evaluate the inclusion of prosopis pods in improved grower indigenous chickens diets in Kenya. The objectives were to determine effects of prosopis pods-based diets in indigenous chicken on performance and meat quality. In experiment 1, diets were formulated by substituting growers‟ rations with prosopis at 0% (T1), 10% (T2), 20% (T3) and 30% (T4) while experiment 2 were formulated by substituting maize in the diet with GPJP at 0% (T1), 10% (T2), 20% (T3) and 30% (T4). A completely randomized design was used with four cockerels and four pullets per treatment in separate cages replicated three times. The results from experiment 1 showed a significant difference (p
