Feed consumption of this weeks were calculated qs 3434.70, 4126.81 and 4964.31 g: feed conversion of this weeks were determined as 3.98, 4.33 and 4.68 respectively. Average body weights of pheasants on fourteenth, sixteenth and eighteenth weeks were determined as; 877.00, 918.00 and 1058.00 g respectively. There were statistically significant differences in average body weights of groups (P<0.05). The dressing percentage ol pheasants a! the same ages were determined as : 74.75 %, 77.15 % and 74.54 % respectively {P<0.05}. Breast and thigh percentage of pheasants were calculated as; 34.18 % and 28.34 %, 34.74 % and 27.66 % and 34,23 % and 27.34 % respectively (P>0.05).
