The plants originated from an agroforestry system have gained immense importance in livestock health and production. The trial was planned to examine the effects of  Moringa oleifera  leaf extract (MLE) supplementation on the performance, blood metabolites, immunity and lipid peroxidation in broiler chicks. A total of 350 day old broiler chicks were divided into negative control (MLE 0 ), positive control (antibiotic; AB-enro),  M. oleifera  supplementation at the concentration of 60 (MLE 60 ), 90 (MLE 90 ) and 120 mL/L (MLE 120 ) of drinking water. Performance parameters such as feed intake, body weight and feed conversion ratio, antibody titer against Newcastle disease and infectious bronchitis, heterophils and lymphocytes ratio, blood glucose, protein, and malanodialdehyde were determined. The results showed that carcass yield was significantly ( p  &lt; 0.05) higher in MLE 90  followed by MLE 120  and AB-enro. MLE 60  and MLE 90  showed significant ( p  &lt; 0.05) increase in antibody titer against New-castle (ND) and Infectious-bronchitis (IB) respectively. Significantly ( p  &lt; 0.05) lower Heterophil to lymphocyte (H:L) ratio was observed in MLE 90  and MLE 120  compared to the negative control. Significantly ( p  &lt; 0.05) lower blood glucose concentration and significantly ( p  &lt; 0.05) higher mean serum protein value were found in MLE 120 . The MLE 120  showed significantly ( p  &lt; 0.05) lower concentration of malanodialdehyde (MDA). It was concluded that  M. oleifera  leaf extract supplementation at the concentration of 120 mL/L of drinking water improved carcass yield, immunity, blood metabolites and reduced lipid peroxidation in broiler chicks.HighlightsMoringa  improved the carcass yield of broilerMoringa  is an excellent immune potentiating agent in broilerMoringa  enhanced the antioxidant potential of broiler Moringa  improved the carcass yield of broiler Moringa  is an excellent immune potentiating agent in broiler Moringa  enhanced the antioxidant potential of broiler
