Aim of the research was to investigate the existence of Burgo chicken by calculating the number of population, population density and distribution pattern of Burgo chicken under traditional domestication system on five districts of Bengkulu Province. A survey method was applied, the collected data were analyzed for Variance-Mean Ratio and formula Density, which were descriptively discussed. The highest population percentage of Burgo chicken (32%) was in Rejang Lebong district and the highest population density of 0.071 chicken/km2 was in Central Bengkulu district. The population distribution pattern were categorized as group random distribution.
