Abstract EN
The effect of various metabolizable energy level on performance and carcass quality of broiler chicks were studied.
A total of one hundred and fifty one-day old, unsexed (Ross) broiler chicks were randomly .divided into five experimental groups.
Each group was further •subdivided into five replicates at the rate of six chicks per pen in ^complete randomized design.
The birds were fed on five levels of metablizable energy (2827, 2972, 3085, 3162 and 3210 Kcal/kg) with .constant level of dietary protein (22%) for 7 weeks duration.
Health of ; the stock and performance parameters were recorded.
At the end of the \ experiment, the birds were slaughtered, dressing, and used for different ^parameters.
The results indicated that the energy level had significant L(P<0.01) effect on performance and carcass quality of broiler chicks.
|Birds fed the highest energy diet (3210 Kcal/kg) showed better results in |body weight gain, feed efficiency and dressing percentage with the ilowest feed intake as compared to the other experimental diets.
The birds [fed the highest energy diet (3210 kg/kg) had significantly (P<0.01) fhighest carcass fat content and abdominal fat percentage as compared to Idle other diets
