Abstract
To assess avowed body conformation and feed efficiency characteristics, 112 CARI-Debendra chicks were investigated at this institute. Almost all the body conformation and feed efficiency traits were significantly (P<0.05) sex-dependent as evidenced at sixth week of age onwards; and males demonstrating better estimates than the females throughout the age. The body conformation traits were highly correlated with phenotypic positive association and could therefore be used to predict either conformation or percentage meat yield of the carcass.
