Present study was conducted to evaluate the growth performance of Vanaraja chicken under backyard and intensive system at agroclimatic conditions of Meghalaya. Day-old chicks (525) of Vanaraja were procured from Project Directorate on Poultry, Hyderabad. Transit loss of day-old chicks was about 0.76%. After 6 weeks of brooding, 300 Vanaraja chicks were distributed to 15 farmers belonging to 6 villages of East Khasi hills and Ri-Bhoi districts of Meghalaya (12 females and 8 males to each farmer). The growth performance of Vanara ja birds were studied in terms of average body weights at fourth dAy, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16 and 18 weeks of age for male, female and combined sex under intensive system of rearing. There was significant difference in body weights between male and female birds from 2 weeks onwards. Feed conversion ratio and mortality percentage up to 6 weeks of age under intensive system.
