<br/><br/> ROLLE, SERAFIM C., Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite, May 2000. "Verification Trial on the Traditional Brooding Systems and Chick Growth." Adviser: Dr. Magdalena N. Alcantara. <br/>One hundred eighty (180) straight-run day-old chicks were used in this study to verify which of the three traditional brooding systems (used of charcoal heaters, incandescent bulbs and open-flame kerosene lamps) was the most effective, practical and economical. Chicks brooded using incandescent bulb gained the highest body weight. There were no differences in feed consumption after brooding using kerosene lamp. Average brooding temperature was highest in the charcoal brooder while in candescent bulb brooder was the coldest. <br/><br/>
