An experiment was conducted at Department of Poultry Science, Veterinary College, Bangalore to evaluate meat production parameters of Giriraja dual purpose chicken reared in deep litter system under standard management conditions fed on different sources and levels of selenium in feed. 384 straight run Giriraja day old chicks were equally allotted to eight treatment groups having four replicates in each. Control group (T1) was fed on basal broiler diet without added selenium in premix. Experiment group T2 and T3 were fed on basal diet enriched with 150 and 300 ppb sodium selenite, while feed for T4 and T5 were enriched with 150 and 300 ppb selenium yeast respectively. Nano selenium at 50, 150 and 300 ppb levels were added to basal diet to form feed for T6, T7 and T8. Live weight, feed intake, feed conversion ratio and dressing yield at 8 weeks of age was not influenced by selenium supplementation. Drip loss was decreased (P≤0.05) by dietary supplementation of selenium yeast at 150 ppb (1.81) and nano selenium at 300 ppb (1.60) and 50 ppb (2.07) and 300 ppb (1.83) levels than negative control (2.62). Cooking loss was reduced (P≤0.05) by supplementation of selenium yeast at 300 ppb (4.56) and nano selenium at 50 ppb (5.66), 150 ppb (5.27) and 300 ppb (4.65) levels than the negative control (8.63). Organic and nano selenium supplementation improved water holding capacity of meat while production parameters and carcass characteristics were not affected.
