Abstract

This experiment was conducted to study the energy requirement of Guizhou yellow chicken during 0 to 6 weeks of age, in order to provide theoretical basis and data reference for the scientific breeding of Guizhou yellow chickens and the formulation of feeding standards. A total of 400 healthy 1-day-old Guizhou yellow chicken chicks were selected in a single-factor completely randomized trial design and randomly divided into 4 groups with 5 repetitions of 20 chicks each. The dietary energy levels of 4 groups were 10.03, 11.71, 12.54 and 13.16 MJ/kg, respectively. The trial period was 6 weeks. The weekly body weight and feed intake of Guizhou yellow chickens were measured, and the average daily gain, average daily feed intake and feed-to-gain ratio were calculated. The apparent metabolic energy and nutrient apparent metabolizabilities were measured by metabolic test, and the physical energy, crude protein and ether extract contents of Guizhou yellow chickens were measured by comparing slaughter test, and the physical energy, protein and fat deposition rate of chickens were calculated to determine the appropriate dietary energy level. The results showed the dietary energy level had significant effects on the average daily gain, average daily feed intake and feed-to-gain ratio of Guizhou yellow chicken during 0 to 6 weeks of age (P<0.05). On the average daily gain of binary regression analysis to get the optimum dietary energy level was 11.17 MJ/kg. Dietary energy level had significant effects on the apparent metabolizabilities of nutrients of Guizhou yellow chicken during 0 to 6 weeks of age (P<0.05), and appropriate increase in dietary energy level could improve the apparent metabolizabilities of each nutrient and thus improve feed utilization. As a judge index, the recommended dietary energy level of Guizhou yellow chicken during 0 to 6 weeks of age was 12.54 MJ/kg. Dietary energy level had significant effects on the intake and deposition rates of energy, crude protein and ether extract of Guizhou yellow chicken during 0 to 6 weeks of age (P<0.05). The appropriate dietary energy level would increase the deposition rates of the three nutrients, as a judge index, the recommended dietary energy level of Guizhou yellow chicken during 0 to 6 weeks of age was 12.54 MJ/kg. The predicted model of energy requirement of Guizhou yellow chicken during 0 to 6 weeks of age established by regression analysis is AMEG=377.70+1.606 9NEG (R2=0.759 1; in this formula, AMEG represents apparent metabolic energy for gain, and NEG represents net energy for gain), and the maintenance apparent metabolic energy requirement per kg of metabolic body weight is 377.70 kJ, and its conversion rate of net energy for gain of apparent metabolic energy for gain is 62.23%.
