Popis:	An experiment was conducted to determine the influence of dietary energy level on the growth performance and morphometric characteristics of local barred chicks. The experiment lasted for 12 weeks. Three hundred and twenty day-old barred chicks were assigned to four different dietary treatments, having four replicates of 20 chicks each. Treatments consisted of D0, D1, D2 and D3 containing 2700, 2800, 2900 and 3000 kcal/kg of metabolisable energy respectively. The highest BW (868 g) and BWG (830 g) were recorded with treatment D1 and D3 (844 g and 804 g respectively). These values were significantly (P
