Effect of selected sugars on body weight, mortality and the incidence and level of salmonella enteritidis in cecal contents of broiler  chicks was studied. One hundred forty four, day d broiler chicks were divided into 6 groups each and 2 replicates of 12 chicks. Groups 1 and 2 were provided water only. Groups 3, 4,5 and 6 were provided in drinking water 5% matose, lactose, sucrose and dextrose, respectively starting on day. Groups 2-6 were challenged orally with 10° cfu 
salmonella enteritidis at day 3 of age. At days 10, 0 and 30 after challenge inoculation, body weight, mortality and cecal contents of 4 chicks in each group were evaluated for the incidence of salmonella enteritidis. The differences in body 
weight between groups provided sugars and control groups were significantly higher at p<0.05). Body weight in birds provided lactose as heavier than the birds provided other sugars. there was no Significant effect between groups 
provided sugars and control group in mortality rates. Salmonella enteritidis colonization of the contents was significantly decreased p'<0.05) in chicks provided sugars. Lactose was most effective sugar regarding lowering colonization . Results show that providing sugars the drinking water of broiler chicks improvs body weight and inhibit cecal colonization of
Salmonella enteritidis.
