    ABSTRACT The study was carried out to acquire a comparative proximate analytical picture between layer feeds of Mohanur raj poultry farm in Namakkal and Kazi poultry farm in Bangladesh which are formulated in their farm on the basis of the requirement birds (hen). As the quality of feed is one of the main determinant factors in successful poultry farming, an attempt was made to compare the quality of both Namakkal layer feed,India and Kazi layer layer feeds, Chittagong. The feed was formulated on Layer-layer basis. The proximate analysis of these feeds showed the following composition such as moisture, crude protein (CP), crude fibre (CF), ether extracts (EE), ash and metabolizable energy (ME). The proximate analytical nutrient concentrates were moisture 10.4% and 10.1%, %CP 17.85% and 19.00%, %EE 2.4% and 4.3%, %CF 6.1% and 4.00%, % ash 6.5% and 6.3% finally ME 2650.72 Kcal/kg and 2800 Kcal/kg respectively Namakkal farm feed and Chittagong farm feed. There was significant difference observed in these feed samples with regards to some nutrient concentration. The age of the birds of two farms was also same (55-60 wkks). From this experipent, it was observed that the quality of feed used in Mohanur raj poultry farm (Namakkal) is better than Kazi poultry farm (Chittagong) and the nutrients are also closed to the standard. This experimental study may be helpful for Bangladeshi farmers and poultry nutritionists to compare between for mixed layer of Bangladesh with Indian (Namakkal) hand mixed layer feed.
