Feed and water were given ad libitum Kombucha was added as much as J% from water given. After 5 weeks feeding trial, two animals from each group were killed and percentage of carcass, abdominal fat, and vital organs were measured, Data from completely randomized design were analyzed statistically using Anova Treatments significantly (p<O,OI) influenced percentage of carcass, abdominal fat, and vital organ. Broilers received non commercial diets with kombucha addition produced lower carcass) abdominal fat and vital organ compared with broilers received commercial diets.
