Statement Of The Problem:

Which 45-day chick will grow

faster and bigger, the one
who eats rice or the one who
eats chicken feeds?
Hypothesis

If a 45-day chick ate chicken

feeds, it will grow faster and
bigger than a 45-day chick
who ate only rice.
Materials Used

• Two (2) 45-day chicks

• Weighing Scale
• 100g chicken feeds
• 100g rice
• Box or Cage
• Marker

Questions:

• Q: What type of feed was consumed more? The rice or the chicken
feed?

• A: the chick B ate more feeds than the chick a who ate rice.

• Q: How much weight was gained by each chick from the first (Day 1) to
the last day (Day 6)?

• A: The chick A gained weight from 150 grams to 157 grams. The chick
B gained weight from 150 grams to 160 grams.

• Q: Which feed is better to make the chick grow faster and bigger?

• A: The chicken feed is better to make a chick grow faster and bigger.
Conclusion:

I therefore conclude that

chicken feeds is much better to
use than rice in making a chick
grow faster and bigger.
Recommendation: Observation:

We recommend After 1 week, their

the use of weight increased.
Chick B grew faster
“chicken feeds” than Chick A. We
for a 45-day chick also observed that
as it would make Chick A ate lesser
it grow faster and than Chick B.
