Sixteen crosses from two strains of white cornish and white plymouth rock were reared separately in floors and abdominal fat was measured every two weeks interval from 2 weeks to 12 weeks of age. The abdominal fat weights surgically removed were slightly heavier in female than male. Estimates of general combining ability variances of body weight showed significant at all weeks of age in both sexes but those of abdominal fat weight were significant at 2,8,10 and 12 weeks of age in female and 2,6 and 12 weeks of age in male
