A total of 514 birds were used to investigate the influence of body weight and shank length at hatch on the body weights at various ages in growing pheasant. Statistical model included the terms of hatch and sex as fixed effects and the two covariates of body weight and shank length at hatch. In this model, the effects of hatch and sex on the body weights at the age of 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20 wk, and the average daily gains from hatch to 8 wk and from 8 to 16 wk of age were highly significant(P<0.01). All the regression coefficients of body weights and average daily gains on the body weight at hatch were also significant(P<0.01). Their estimates were 3.05.7.21. 13.89, 15.18 and 15.33 for the body weights at 4. 8, 12, 16 and 20 wk of age ; 0.111 and 0.142 for the average daily gains from hatch to 8 wk, and from 8 to 16 wk of age, respectively. On the shank length, only the regression coefficients of the body weights at 4 and 8 wk of age and the average daily gains from hatch to 8 wk of age were significant(P<0.01). Results of this study suggest that body weight at hatch do significantly affect the body weights in the growing periods up to' the 20 wk of age, but the shank length at hatch influences the body weights only at early age.1)

육성기 꿩의 체중과 정강이 길이의 측정치에 나타나는 부화차순과 성별의 효과를 조사하고자 개체별 20주령까지 측정된 육성기 꿩에 대한 분석을 한 결과 다음과 같았다. 육성기 암꿩의 체중은 부화시, 4, 8, 12, 16 및 20주령에서 각각 17.9, 96.0, 296.4, 563.4, 709.0 및 757.4g 이었으며, 수꿩은 주령별 각각 18.3, 104.4, 349.1, 728.5, 1001.4 및 1101.6g 으로 나타났다. 부화차순의 환경효과은 일반적으로 정강이 길이보다 체중에 더 많이 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 체중과 정강이 길이에 대한 성별효과는 부화시에는 없었으나(P＞0.05), 그 후 사육주령이 경과할수록 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 암수에 따른 성별의 차이는 부화시를 제외하고 4, 8, 12, 16 및 20주령에서 체중과 정강이 길이 모두 유의차(P＜0.05)를 보여주었고, 부화시에 차이가 없었던 체중이 20주령에서는 수꿩의 암꿩에 비해 약 344g 이나 더 무거웠다. 정강이 길이의 성장은 암수 모두 16주령까지 거의 완성되는 것으로 나타났다.

육성기 꿩의 주령별 체중과 정강이 길이에 관한 상호관계를 조사하고, 조기 체중과 정강이 길이가 종꿩으로의 최종 선발주령인 20주령의 체중에 대한 회귀분석 결과 다음과 같았다. 부화시부터 20주령까지 성장기 꿩의 동일주령에서 체중과 정강이 길이는 암꿩에서 0.50~0.83, 수꿩에서 0.57~0.85의 정의 상관관계(P＜0.01)를 보여주고 있었으며, 부화시 체중은 4, 8 및 12주령의 체중과는 상관관계가 인정되지 못했으나 (P＞0.05), 부화시 체중과 16 및 20주령 체중과의 상관계수는 암컷에서 0.44(P＜0.01) 및 0.44(P＜0.01)로, 수컷에서는 각각 0.32(P＜0.05) 및 0.30(P＜0.05)로 성장말기 체중과 정의 상관관계로 나타나고 있었으나, 부화시 정강이 길이와 20주령의 체중 사이에는 암수 모두에서 상관관계가 인정되지 않았다(P＞0.05). 20주령의 체중에 대한 조기 측정치(12주령 이전)들의 회귀모형들을 검토한 바, 부화시와 12주령시 측정치를 포함한 모형 ($R^2$＝0.96), 8주령과 12주령시 측정치를 포함한 모형($R^2$＝0.96), 또는 부화시, 8주령 및 12주령시 측정치를 이용한 모형($R^2$＝0.97)으로 평가하는 것이 좋을 것으로 사료되었다.

The aim of this study was to investigate the growth performance between two different crossbred strains of Korean native chickens denoted as 1E and 2E with a white semibroiler (LL) from hatch to d-84 post-hatch. A total of 450 one-day-old chicks were randomly distributed into cages which included 15 replicate cages each for 1E and 2E with 9 replicate cages for LL. A three phase feeding program was used as a starter (Day 1 - 35; crude protein [CP] 20.3%; metabolizable energy [ME] 3,059 kcal·kg^-1), grower (Day 36 - 56; CP 18.6%; ME 3,123 kcal·kg^-1) and finisher (Day 57 - 84; CP 16.7%; ME 3,187 kcal·kg^-1). The results revealed that LL had a higher (p < 0.05) BW during d-8 to d-84 compared with the other two cross breed groups. A higher (p < 0.05) ADG was observed from the LL during the entire period except from d-1 to d-14 and d-71 to d-84 when compared with 1E and 2E. Shank length did not vary (p > 0.05) between the strains, despite LL having a SL that was 2.86% higher (p < 0.05) when compared with the other strains from d-15 to d-21 post-hatch, and 1E had a SL that was 2.28% (p < 0.05) higher when compared with the other strains during the first week of the experiment.

This study was conducted to compare the growth performances of three groups of commercial Korean native chickens (KNCs) including two strains of crossbreeds and H3 (Hanhyeop 3) from hatch to twelve weeks of age. (1A, 2A, and H3). A total of 468 one-day-old chicks were allocated in a completely randomized design with 15 replicates per treatment for the crossbreeds and 9 replicates per treatment for H3 (12 birds per cage). Commercial broiler diets (i.e., Week 0 - 5 crude protein [CP] 22.0%, metabolizable energy [ME] 3,025 kcal·kg^-1; week 5 - 8 CP 20.0%, ME 3,100 kcal·kg^-1; week 8 - 12 CP 19.0%, ME 3,150 kcal·kg^-1) were provided according to the Korean Feeding Standard for Poultry on an ad-libitum basis with fresh clean water during the twelve-week period. Body weight gain and shank length (SL) were measured weekly until week 6 and bi-weekly during week 6 to 12. Compared to H3, the two crossbreed groups had a higher body weight (BW) on weeks 3 to 8; however, the bodyweight of H3 on week 10 was significantly higher than the other groups (p < 0.05). Moreover, the average daily feed intake (ADFI) of H3 was higher than that of the two crossbreed groups from hatching to 84 days except for week 3, and H3 showed a lower average daily gain (ADG) on weeks 3 and 10 (p < 0.05). Furthermore, H3 had a higher feed conversion ratio compared to another crossbreed chicken on weeks 1 to 8 and the last week after hatching. Among all the groups, there was no significant difference for shank length during the experimental period.

A comparative study was conducted to examine the effects of mixed and separate gender feeding on growth performance of Korean native chickens (KNC) against a white semi-broiler (WSB) and a commercial broiler (CB) over five weeks. 576 chicks were used with eight birds per cage in a randomized complete block design with 18 replicates per breed. For the KNC lines, three groups of male (M), female (F) and mixed-gender (FM) were used. Fresh water and feed were supplied on an ad-libitum basis. Birds were fed a standard starter (d 1 - 22) and grower diet (d 23 - 35). Body weight (BW), feed intake, and shank length (SL) were measured weekly. From the BW and feed consumed data, the average daily feed intake (ADFI), average daily gain (ADG), and feed conversion ratio (FCR) were calculated. The commercial broiler showed higher performance (p < 0.05) for all the indices measured for the entire period. The CB group consumed more feed and were more feed-efficient thus grew faster. This group was followed by the white semi-broiler and the KNC, in order. An intra-breed comparison for KNCs revealed that the males showed better growth performance with longer SL (p < 0.05) compared to the female and mixed-gender groups. The results showed that other than the breed type, mixed and separate gender feeding impacted on the growth performance of the two lines of Korean native chickens. Males for both lines of KNC generally performed better for the parameters measured, as determined by a greater BW and reduced FCR.
