Abstract
One of the maintenance management of Broilers is the regulation of cage density. In the tropics, cage density affects comfort in a cage, high temperature and humidity are the main causes of stress in chickens. Cages with in apropriate densities have a negative impact on meat production and quality performance. The study aims to identify cage density to the quality of broiler chicken meat. The study used a completely randomized design with 3 treatments, namely density 8, 10 and 12 tails per square meter, each treatment was repeated tree times. The result showed that the difference in cage density in the maintenance of broiler chicken up to the age of fine weeks did not affect meat quality. It is recomended maintenance with a density of 12 tails broiler chicken up to age of 5 weeks can be done without affecting the quality of meat.
