Abstract Three experiments carried out Agriculture Research were at Center, Alexandria University (Poultry Production Department),to study the effectiveness of using Anise, Fennel and Ginger as feed additives in the nutrition of broiler chicks. The first Trial: Sixty four Hubbard broiler chicks were used in this experiment and randomly assigned to four groups. In each group the chicks were divided into two replicates. The experiment period lasted from 12-47 days of age, the groups were fed diets with Anise, Fennel and Ginger 500g/ton as feed additives. At the end of the experiment, two chicks from each group were sa1ughtered and carcass characteristics and organs were determined. The results obtained of this experiment could be summarized as follows: 1-The re was no significant differences in body weight during experimental period except for body weight of 47 day old chicks, where Anise diet significantly increased body weight as compared to other treatments. 2-There was no significant difference in body weight gain during the experimental period except for the whole experimental period, where Anise fed chicks showed higher body weight gain. 3-Feed, protein and energy consumptions for the whole experimental period were not affected by different treatments. 4-Feed and protein ratios not significantly conversion were affected by treatments. 5- Supplements of Anise, Fennel and Ginger did not affect dressing, thigh, breast and back percentage. 6-Carcass organs were not affected by adding different types of spices. 7-No significant difference were shown with respect to moisture, protein, nitrogen free extract fat and ash percentage. 8-No differences could be attributed to supplementing with Anise, Fennel and Ginger on water holding capacity and shearing force, however , Ginger significantly increased plasticity when supplemented as a feed additive. 9-There were no significant differences in panel test. The second Trial: Sixty Hubbard broiler chicks were used in this experiment and randomly assigned to four each group the chicks were groups.In into three replicates. The experiment period lasted from 5-47 age, the groups were fed diets with Anise, Fennel and Ginger1 000g/t on as feed additives. At the end of the experiment, three chicks from each group were slaughtered and carcass characteristics and organs were determined. The results obtained of this experiment could be summarized as follows: 1-Body weight was not affected by supplementation different types of spices. 2-Body weight gain was not significantly different among the three additives during experimental period. 3-No significant differences among treatments in the feed, protein and energy consumptions were noted. 4-The three additives protein conversion did not affect feed, ratios during experimental period. 5-There were no significant differences in dressing, thigh, breast and back percentages. 6- Carcass organs were not significantly affected by adding different types of spices. 7- No significant difference were shown with regard to moisture, protein and ash except fat and NFE percentages. 8-Supplementing with the three spices as additives did not affect water holding capacity, intensity. The third Trial: Seventy five Hubbard broiler chicks were used in this experiment and randomly assigned to five groups. In each group the chicks were divided into three replicates. The experiment period lasted from 5-47 days of age, the groups were fed diets supplemented with Anise + Fennel, Anise + Ginger, Fennel + Ginger and Anise + Fennel + Ginger 1000g/ton. At the end of the experiment, three chicks from each group were slaughtered and the carcass characteristics and organs were determined. The results obtained of this experiment could be summarized as follows: 1-Body weight was not affected by combining the three spices. 2-Body weight gain not was significantly different among treatments during experimental period. 3-Three were no significant differences in the feed, protein and energy consumptions among treatments. 4-No significant differences treatments among with respect to feed, protein conversion ratios during experimental period were noticed. 5-Dressing, thigh, breast and back percentages did not show any differences among treatments. 6-Carcass organs were not affected by using these spices as feed additives. 7-There were no significant differences in the moisture, protein, ash and fat percentages except NFE percent age, that showed significant difference. 8-Water holding capacity plasticity and shearing force were not affected by different treatments, however, color intensity was shown to be significantly affected by the dietary treatments.
