Utilization of energy for maintenance and gain in broilers and Leghorns at two ages.

Regression equations describing the relationship between energy gain and metabolizable energy intake per unit metabolic weight were derived for 8- to 22-day-old and 28- to 42-day-old broilers and 14- to 28-day-old and 28- to 42-day-old Leghorns. The estimated maintenance energy requirements were lower in the 28- to 42-day-old birds than in the younger birds, but the decreases were small. Maintenance energy requirements of Leghorns were 36% less than those of broilers. Age had no effect on the efficiency of energy utilization above maintenance in broilers. However, the efficiency of energy utilization above maintenance in Leghorns was 43% lower in the older birds. This was correlated with a lower percentage fat gain in the older Leghorns. The percentage fat gain in broilers was substantially higher in the older birds, but this was not correlated with changes in energetic efficiency.
