This experiment was conducted to determine the chemical composition and the values of apparent metabolizable energy (AME) and nitrogen-corrected apparent metabolizable energy (AMEn) of cashew nut meal (CNM), coconut meal (CONM) and two types of sugar cane yeast (SCY1 and SCY2) for chicks, roosters end Japanese quail. Three digestibility trials were carried out using the methodology of the total excreta collection. Treatments consisted of a reference-diet and four test-diets (40% of feedstuffs and 60% of reference-diet). The values of metabolizable energy determined with Japanese quail and roosters were higher than those obtained with chicks. For CONM and SCY2, the AME and AMEn determined with Japanese quails were lower than those determined for roosters, but the highest values of AME and AMEn for CNM were obtained with Japanese quail. Independente of the bird type the SCY1 showed higher values of AME and AMEn than those of SCY2.
