Extract

1. The digestibilities of the protein, oil and carbohydrate by chick in mash and pellets made from this mash have been determined at weekly intervals from 0 to 9 weeks.

2. There was no difference in the chemical composition of the food due to pelleting, not were there any differences in the digestibilities due either to pelleting or the age of the chick.
