The egg quality test was carried out at the Poultry Laboratory, Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Sudirman Campus, Denpasar.

The variables observed were external quality including egg weight and egg index, and internal quality including eggshell thickness, eggshell weight, pH, yolk color, haugh unit (HU). The results showed that egg weight, eggshell thickness, eggshell weight, egg yolk color and haugh unit (HU) R1 treatment were real (P <0.05) better than R0 treatment. Whereas the egg index and egg pH on the R0 treatment were not real (P> 0.05) compared to R1. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that the Chicken Isa Brown with the administration of 5% dragon fruit extract in drinking water with commercial rations gave better quality to egg weight, eggshell thickness, eggshell weight, egg yolk color and haugh unit (HU) and no effect the index of egg shape and pH of eggs.
