Abstract

We studied the morphological composition of carcass and its anatomical parts of broiler chickens in 28-, 35-, and 42-day-old cross of “Smena 7”. We have estab-lished with the aid of these experiments that highest yield in 42-day-old broilers of is 37.04% of breast, carcass - 19.41%; thigh - 16.39%; shin - 13.51%, and wing - 10.16%. In carcasses contains 72.57% of muscle tissue, bones - 15.36% and with remnants of skin fat - 8.92%. The cost of ongoing anatomical parts of carcasses depends not only on morphological structure of carcasses, but also on the demand of buyers into separate parts.
