This study entitled the, Growth Response of Gallus gallus domesticus Linn. (chicken) fed with azolla pinnata R. Br (mosquito fern) and lemna minor linn. (common duckweed) focused on factors such as weight, feed conversion ratio (FCR), carcass yield and survival. There were three types of formulated feeds fed to chicken to compare the growth in different variables. The experimental species used in the experiment were bought from brgy. Tabing-ilog Tanay, Rizal. A total of thirty (30) chickens were utilized in the study which were divided equally in three treatments with three replicates. The study lasted for thirty five (35) days from August 29, 2017 to October 3, 2017. The first treatment used 100% standard broiler feed; second treatment used 85% standard feed and 15% azolla meal; third treatment used 85% standard feed and 15% duckweed meal. Feeding of stock was done thrice a day at 7:00 am, 12:00 nn and 6:30 pm. weights chicken were recorded weekly on 21-day culture period. In terms of weight, treatment I obtained the highest weight gain at 719.9 g. Lowest was in treatment III which attained the weight gain of 617 g. The feed conversion ratio (FCR) attained in treatment I with the value of 2.08. Followed by treatment II with the value of 2.18. The poorest feed conversion ratio (FCR) was attained in treatment III with the average of 2.43. In terms of survival rate, all treatments got a survival rate of 100% these results do not need to undergo analysis of variance. The researchers concluded that there is a significant difference on the growth of chicken (G. Gallus domesticus) in all treatments.
