Abstract: A feeding trial was carried out to assess the effect of Moringaoleifera leaf meal (MOLM) and Senna occidentalis leaf meal (SOLM) composite mixture on their haematology, serum chemistry and egg lipid profile of total of 150 Isa brown layers of sixteen weeks of age. Thirty (30) chicks were randomly selected and allocated to each of the five (5) treatment groups (T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5) in a completely randomized design (CRD) in a battery cage system. Each treatment group contained three (3) replicates with ten (10) birds per replicate and the feeding trial lasted for ten (10) weeks. The experimental treatment included the control (maize – soya bean meal basal diet with oxytetracyline administered to the birds through drinking water) as T1, T2 (same basal diet was mixed with 0.5% MOLM + 2.0% SOLM), T3 (same basal diet was added with 1.0% MOLM + 1.5% SOLM), T4 (same basal diet was added with 1.5% MOLM + 1.0% SOLM) and T5 (same basal diet was mixed with 2.0% MOLM + 0.5% SOLM) and T2 to T5were without antibiotic in the water. MOLM and SOLM blend significantly (P
