The data were analyzed factorially with energy constant and fat and protein variable (Ta to T4) and with fat constant and energy and protein variable (T3 to T6). In Experiment 1, 18-wk body weight increased slightly (P < .05) due to increasing the energy or adding fat to the diets, whereas egg weight during the early stages of egg production was increased modestly (P < .05) only due to increasing the energy level. In Experiment 2, when energy was constant, egg weight was increased due to increasing the protein level or adding fat to the diets (P < .05). When fat was constant, egg weight was increased only due to increasing the protein level (P < .05). The increased egg weight under these conditions was due mainly to increasing the albumen weight. The results indicated that egg weight during the early stages of the egg production cycle can be increased due to increasing the protein level from 17 to 21% or by adding 4% fat to the conventional layer diets, and that the beneficial effect of fat on egg weight is independent from its energy effect.
