Abstract: A total of 300 commercial broiler chicks was used in this study to determine the effect of ground rice bean seeds as feed additive on the growth rate of broilers. Birds were divided into four treatments and were replicated three times with 25 birds per replication. Birds in Treat-ment I was designated as control while birds in Treatments II, III and IV received feeds with the corresponding level of ground rice bean seeds of 4%, 8% and 12%, respectively, from the third week up to the sixth week of the study. Feed additive was removed on the last two weeks. Results showed no significant differences on their 8th week average body weight and feed consumption. Feed efficiency was observed to be significant only on the sixth week. Mortality was low and differences were also found to be insignificant.
