The present study was conducted to investigate the growth performance in four varieties of native aseel chicken. for this purpose,96 day-old aseel chicks,24 each of 4 different varieties viz. peshawari,mianwali,mushki and lakha were maintained at indigenous chicken genetic resource center,department poultry production,university of veterinary and animal sciences,lahore ravi campus,pattoki. the experimental birds were kept in cages and placed in a well-ventilated open sided poultry house under similar management conditions up to 15 weeks of age. the birds had free access to clean and fresh drinking water through drinking nipples provided natural day light and were fed a broiler ration ad libitum according to nrc standards. data were analyzed by anova technique and means were compared by using dmr test. the results showed that the average body weight (g) in four varieties of aseel differed significantly (p<0.05) at 4th,5th,6th,7th,10th,12th,13th,14th and 15 weeks of age. weekly body weight gain (g) in four varieties of aseel differed significantly (p<0.05) at 4th,5th,8th,9th and 10th weeks of age. weekly times of weight gain differed significantly (p<0.05) at 3rd,4th,5th,8th,9th and 10th weeks of age. fcr in four varieties of aseel differed significantly (p<0.05) at 1st,4th,5th,8th,9th,11th and 12th weeks of age. the weekly mean feed intake (g) in four varieties of aseel differed significantly (p<0.05) during the entire experimental period. based on the findings of this study it may be stated that mushki variety of aseel exhibited better growth rate and fcr than three other varieties,therefore,it may be considered for future breeding programs. copyright 2014 zoological society of pakistan.
