Poultry feed can serve as a carrier for a range of microbial contaminants such as moulds, mycotoxins and bacteria. This study was done to determine isolates from three different brands of broiler poultry feeds. Organisms isolated from poultry feeds were Staphylococcus aureus, E.coli, Bacillus substilis, Salmonella sp, Proteus sp and Shigella sp. Among the bacterial isolates of all samples, Gram negative bacteria were common all the samples especially E.Coli with 40%. The presence of some pathogenic microorganisms in the poultry feeds revealed high level of contaminations. It is recommended that poultry feeds should be made from good quality grains and it should be prevented from environmental or other contamination
