Design was conducted in order to determine the meat production performances of F1 Choi x Luong Phuong chickens in rations containing different levels of metabolizable energy and crude protein with Perionyx excavatus extract Results show that the feed consumption, feed conversion efficiency, protein efficiency ratio and the gross profit margin in raising F1 Choi x Luong Phuong chickens up to 90 days of age were significantly affected by the interaction of the inclusion of 1.8% (by weight) P.excavatus extract and the levels of metabolizable energy and crude protein in the ration The higher levels of metabolizable energy and crude protein in ration containing 1.8% P.excavatus extract significantly increased the feed consumption of the chickens On the other hand, lowering the levels of metabolizable energy and crude protein in the ration containing 1.8% P.excavatus extract significantly improved the feed conversion efficiency, protein efficiency ratio and the gross profit margin Besides, significant main effects of the inclusion of 1.8% P.excavatus extract and of the different levels of dietary metabolizable energy and crude protein were observed on the final body weight, weight gain, average daily gain and energy efficiency ratio These varibles were significantly improved by the inclusion of 1.8% P.excavatus extract in the feeds irrespective of levels of metabolizable energy and crude protein in the ration On the other hand, significantly higher final body weight, gain in weight and average daily gain were posted by the experimental chickens fed with ration containing higher levels of metabolizable energy and crude protein, irrespective of the viii ix inclusion or absence of 1.8% P.excavatus extract in the feeds Significantly higher energy efficiency ratio was observed among the chickens fed with experimental rations having lower levels of metabolizable energy and crude protein regardless of the inclusion or non-inclusion of 1.8% P.excavatus extract in the feeds On the other hand, the dressing percentage, cut-up parts yield and carcass color, tenderness and water holding capacity were apparently unaffected by the inclusion of 1.8% P.excavatus extract in the feeds and the levels of metabolizable energy and crude protein in the rations However, slight differences between sexes were observed on the dressing percentage, breast and fat yield The males have slightly higher dressing percentage and breast yield but not fat yield compared with the female F1 Choi x Luong Phuong chickens The author therefore recommends that rations with 1.8% P.excavatus extract and containing 2772 Kcal ME/kg with 21% crude protein at to 45 days of age and 2790 Kcal ME/kg with 18% crude protein at 46 to 90 days of age can be fed to improve the meat production performances and profitability in raising F1 Choi x Luong Phuong chickens In addition, utilization studies on the use of other localavailable feedstuffs in formulating feeds for F1 Choi x Luong Phuong chickens can be done to possibly lower feed cost and improve production performance Moreover, the evaluation of the metabolizable energy and crude protein levels required by other native chicken breeds can be done in order to come up with the optimum levels of these nutrients for improved performances and more profitable production ix 69 Appendix Table 70 Appendix Table
