The brazilian poultry industry is one of the most developed in the world, however, with significant growth and scientific progress, studies are needed on accommodation and techniques for creating ambience of birds. An aviary should ensure a comfortable environment for poultry, ensuring high productivity. In this context, seeking to overcome the variations of ambience, it has adopted the construction of Dark-House aviaries with curtains and solid wall, which provide a greater environmental control and improved performance of the broiler chickens. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the performance of broiler chickens created in conventional, Dark-House with curtain and solid wall aviaries. Six created broilers were accompanied on 5 conventional aviaries, 5 Dark-House with curtain and 5 solid wall Dark-House. The line and feeding management did not differ between the created. Were collected data weight gain, slaughter weight, age at slaughter, feed conversion and mortality. The data
