Description The present study was conducted on duodenum, jejunum, ileum, caecum and colorectum of Japanease quail. The weight of the duodenum on day 7th and 42nd was 0.47±0.05 g and 1.45±0.09 g, respectively. The length of the duodenum was found to be 8.60±0.36 cm and 14.13±0.55 cm on the same observation days. The weight and length of the jejunum ranged from 0.47±0.07 g to 1.62±0.19 g and 11.99±0.33 cm to 23.70±1.10 cm on day 7th and 42nd old birds, respectively. The values for the weight and length of the ileum were 0.30±0.03 g to 1.32±0.12 g and 10.21±0.80 cm to 20.88±1.61 cm, respectively at 7th and 42nd old birds of age. The weight and length of caecum were ranged from 0.22±0.03 g to 1.13±0.18 g and 4.13±0.07 cm to 7.69±0.30 cm. The values for the weight and length of the colorectum were 0.10±0.01 g to 0.51±0.05 g and 3.36±0.16 cm to 6.93±0.33 cm. The total length and weight of the five constituents, i.e. duodenum, jejunum, ileum, caecum and colorectum together formed the entire weight and length of the intestine which ranged from 1.55±0.08 g to 6.02±0.43 g and 37.97±1.04 to 73.34±1.61 cm, respectively at 7th and 42nd old birds of age.
