This research had been conducted in mini feed mill and laboratory of nutrition and feed of Kupang State of Polytechnic of Agriculture in August 2019. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the level of coconut oil in broiler diets on the physical quality of pellet. The experimental design used was randomized complete design consisting of four treatments and five replications. The treatments were P0 ( 0% coconut oil), P1 (1% coconut oil), P2 (2% coconut oil) dan P3 (3% coconut oil) Variables measured were specific gravity, (pellet durability indexs, PDI), kerapatan tumpukan (KT), dan sudut tumpukan (ST). The results show that treatments did not significantly (P > 0.05) affect pile density and pile angle.but it affected (P < 0,05 to 0,01) the specific gravity and pellet durability index. Inconclusion,1) the addition of coconut oil with different level in broiler diets did not improve the pile density and pile angle of pellets; 2) as increase the coconut oil level, the higher the pellet durability index. 3) there was an increase tendency in specific gravity of pellet asthe level of coconut oil increased
