A good feed conversion would be 2 lbs of feed to yield 1 lb of live bird weight. Anything less than that is great. The lowest I've ever seen was 1.6 lbs of feed to yield 1 lb of live bird.

A system has been developed that stimulates more active crops and gizzards of meat chicken. This leads to enhanced digestion of their feed and healthier birds with lower mortality and improved feed efficiency. We have recorded Feed Conversion Ratios of under 1.5 to 1!
