dc.description.abstractThis study was carried out to evaluate the effect of different levels of Moringa oleifera oil on feed intake and digestibility coefficient of pregnant Goat . The pregnant West African Dwarf Goat (Doe) were assigned to three experimental Diets A, B and C in a Latin square Design model for a eight week period. The experimental Diet A (control) had no inclusion of Moringa oleifera oil while Diets B and C had 0.25g/kg and 0.5g/kg Moringa oil inclusion respectively. There were significant differences in the feed intake of all the parameters evaluated. While the DM, CP and CF digestibilities of the experimental animals were similar (P>0.05). However, there was significant difference in the ether extract digestibility of the experimental animals. In conclusion, the inclusion of Moringa oleifera oil holds a good potential in the diet of pregnant West African Dwarf goat.en_US
