The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of prosopis africana seed coat meal (PASCM) on the performance and nutrient utilization of three hundred (300) Nera brown day-old pullet chicks that were fed for 56 days. The birds were randomly allotted to 5 experimental diets with 3 replications of 20 birds each. The diets were formulated with the inclusion of PASCM at 0, 15, 20, 25 and 30% levels, respectively and the data collected were subjected to analysis of Variance in a completely randomized design. Results obtained showed that the 0%(control diet) had the highest feed intake of 31.94g/bird/day. While the best FCR (3.09) and highest final weight gain (608.33g/bird) were obtained in 0% PASCM inclusion level. Also birds on 0% PASCM inclusion level had the highest value of weight gain (10.33g/bird) and best protein efficiency ratio (0.64). Mortality was not observed. The digestible CP and EE were highest (P 0.05) from 15% and 20% inclusion levels. It was therefore concluded that 20% PASCM inclusion level could be adopted for optimum growth performance and digestibility in pullet chicks’ diets.
