The percentage of carcass and the percentage of abdominal fat were analyzed using ANOVA (Analysis of Variance). Total bacteria and fat content were analyzed descriptively. During the research the chickens were given 5 drinking water treatments and 5 replications, namely, P0 (control), P1 (20 ml/Liter), P2 (40 ml/Liter), P3 (60 ml/Liter), P4 (80 ml/Liter).The results showed that giving Tambora leaf infusion in drinking water to carcass percentage ranged from 63.38% - 74.81%, percentage of abdominal fat 0.85% - 1.62%, total bacteria 0 x 105CFU / g - 3 x 105CFU / g and meat fat content from 2.66% - 9.43%. Tambora leaf infusion in drinking water to the percentage of carcass and the percentage of abdominal fat did not have a significant effect (P> 0.05), the application of Tambora leaf infusion in drinking water to the total bacteria in chicken intestines did not exceed the threshold for microbial contamination based on the Indonesian National Standard ( SNI) No. 7388-2009.
