Chick's were subjected to four darkness program: Treatment 1, serviced as a control (24 light + zero dark), Treatment 2 (18 L + 6 D continues when chicks arrived 150 g), Treatment 3 (1 hour of darkness at 2ndday, 2 hours of darkness at the start of the 2nd week, 3 hours of darkness at the start of the 3th week, 4 hours of darkness at the start of the 4 th week and 5 hours of darkness at the start of the 5th week) and Treatment 4 (1 hour of darkness from the 4th day until the 7th day, 4 hours of darkness from the 8th day until the 14th day, and 6 hours of darkness from the15th day until the 30th day).
