Abstract
Indonesia is well known for its endemic fauna diversity including various aves dan poultry species, especially birds and local chickens. Sumatera island where Bengkulu province is located has varieties of endemic chickens such as balenggek chicken in West Sumatera, burgo chicken and Talang Benih duck in Bengkulu, and merawang chicken in Bangka Belitung. Burgo chicken is a crossmated species between male red jungle fowl and female kampung chicken. Unfortunately, an itemized morphometric studies to compare the size of its body part to its parental, kampung chicken, is still unrevealed yet until this present study conducted. The research results found that female burgo chicken had a smaller values of morphometrical size on body weight, chest girth, and chest length compare to kampung chicken, except for its body length. Average of burgo chicken and kampung chicken body weight, body length, chest girth and chest length were 0.7598 kg and 1.284 kg, 27.57 cm and 30.72 cm, 11.10 cm and 13.78 cm, 24.97 cm and 28.02 cm, respectively. Then, the coefficient of variation for burgo chicken and kampung chicken body weight, body length, chest girth and chest length were 17.48% and 19.58%, 7.73% and 6.67%, 8.71% and 14.44%, 6.53% and 8.32%, respectively. Furthermore based on t-test result, burgo chicken morphometrical size was significantly smaller than kampung chicken (P < 0.05). It can be concluded that variance of morphometric size of burgo chicken was smaller compared to kampung chicken.
