An experiment was conducted to study the effect of incorporation of fish and chicken wastes on comparative biogas production and distribution of microorganisms. The treatments had equel quantity of cattle dung and water mixed with old slurry and fish and chicken wastes in to proportion of 4: 1: 1. Two sets of experiments were conducted le, one set kept above ground and the other kept burried in soil, for 12 weeks and gas generated were measured for every 24 hours. The fish wastes Incorparated above ground. (4: 1: 1) gave the maximum average gas output of 1088 cc/day over 12 weeks compared to 899 cc/day of chicken wastes. Similarly the maximum bacterial population of 47,0 x 100/0 was estimated in fish wastes kent on the ground compared to chicken slurry (338x 104/g) fish clurry wae to found to have fish celluloytic activity and also produced fish methanogenic activity.
