Abstract: The experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of using the magnetic drinking water and both of the form and feed restriction on the broilers (Sasso strain) chick’s performance: Body Weight (BW), Daily Body Weight Gain (DBWG), Daily Water Consumption (DWC), Daily Feed Consumption (DFC), Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR) and Mortality Percentages (MR) of the whole experimental period. A total number of 1600 chicks unsexed Sasso broiler was used, divided into eight Treatments with two replicates for each treatments, in factorial experimental design 2×mn;2×mn;2 by two replicates. The results of present study for the whole experimental period, showed highly significant differences (p≤0.001) between water treatments on BW at 8 weeks of age, since, the birds drank magnetic water has heavier BW than those drank ordinary water. Also, feed form and restricted diet had significant differences on Sasso broiler BW, since, those fed crumble diet or fed ad libtum has heavier weight than those fed pellet diet or fed 90% amount of feed. The results of DBWG showed significant difference between all treatment studied, since, magnetic water, crumble diet and ad libitum feeding has the superiority in that respect. Magnetic water and ad libtum feeding reduce significantly (p≤0.001) DWC values while the effect of feed form in that respect was insignificant. The only significant differences (p≤0.001) of DFC values was found between feeding treatments, since, those fed ad libtum has higher DFC (80.99 g) than those fed 90% amount of diet (70.63 g). The results of FCR indicated highly significant differences between water treatments, since, those drink magnetic water have better FCR values compared with those drink ordinary water. Feed form has insignificant differences in respect of FCR values, both forms has equal value (2.31), however, feed restriction has highly significant better FCR value (2.21) than those fed ad libtium (2.41). In respect of MR, magnetic water treatment has significant (p≤0.05) higher MR than those drink ordinary water. Feed forms have insignificant effect on MR while the feed restriction has highly significant (p≤0.01) better MR value (2.06%) than ad libitum feeding (3.44%).
