The aim of the study was estimated the effect of silver nanoparticles as a water supplementation in broiler chicken on productive performance, carcass characteristics and bone measurements at five weeks feeding trail. A total number of 150 (cobb 500) were divided randomly into 5 treatment (30 chicks each), each treatment replicated 3 time of 10 chicks. The experimental treatments were supplemented the drinking water with different levels of silver nanoparticles (0.0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5 and 10 ppm). At the end of experiment 4 birds of each treatment were slaughtered to estimate carcass characteristics and bone measurements. The results showed that live body weight, daily body weight gain, daily feed intake, feed conversion ratio, performance index and European production efficiency factor weren’t affected significantly by treatments. All carcass traits and cuts also weren’t affected significantly by different levels of silver nanoparticles except breast%. There weren’t significant differences between treatment in all bone physical or chemical measurements except tibia breaking strength where it decreased significantly in all treated groups and ash% where it increased significantly in all treated groups. In conclusion, supplemented different levels of silver nanoparticles in broiler drinking water hadn’t negative effect on growth performance, carcass characteristic or bone measurements.
