Abstract:
Bearing in mind certain established European Union regulations on the conventional extensive broiler rearing system as well as poultry breeding specificities of our country, experimental investigations were organized with the aim of making a comparison between broiler growth in two different non-industrial rearing systems. The systems included extensive fattening in a poultry house and free-range rearing. The fattening period in both rearing systems lasted up to the 63rd day of broiler age. During the fattening period chicken growth was controlled by individual chicken weighing on a weekly bas

Fattening of chickens in chicken coop to age of 84 days had considerable effect on increase of slaughter yields: "Conventional processing"(83.59%), "Ready to roast"(77.22%) and "Ready to grill"(67.17%) compared to 42nd day of age (82.21; 74.87 and 65.42%). Redbro chickens reared on free range had lower body masses compared to chickens reared from chicken coops in all investigated ages.

Abstract:
Modern broiler production is based on exploitation of meat type hybrids which are characterized by intensive growth, excellent food efficiency, strong constitution and excellent body conformation. In Serbia, many foreign proveniences are present and therefore there is a need to define a hybrid which in existing production conditions would realize the best fattening results. Objective of the study was to determine the production results of two most present line hybrids on our market, Cobb-500 and Ross-308. The following production parameters: body mass, gain, feed consumption, feed conversion,

In this work quantity of abdominal fat (weight and portion) was examined in broilers of two genotypes in the fifth, sixth and seventh week of their growth. The examination was carried out in production conditions, in the facility for commercial fattening of broilers chickens, so all technical recommendations related to intensive rearing of chickens were provided. Broilers Cobb 500 and Hubbard Classic which were housed in separate boxes (8 boxes for each genotype) were used as a material. Forty male chickens and forty female chickens at the 5, 6 and 7 weeks of age were selected for slaughtering

For the use of the old bread as a feed, the European Union has promulgated a series of regulations and directives, which order a ban on its utilization without prior treatment.
