This study aimed to estimate metabolizable energy (ME) and digestible lysine (DL) requirements of Japanese quail in the starter (1 to 14 days) and grower (15 to 42 days) phases and investigate the influence of these dietary factors on body chemical composition, relative organ weights, and blood and bone parameters. The design was completely randomized with a 4 × 4 factorial arrangement (ME = 2830, 2970, 3110, and 3250 kcal × DL = 0.90%, 1.07%, 1.24%, and 1.41%), totaling 16 treatments, 3 replications per treatment, 50 birds per experimental unit in the starter phase (n = 2400 birds), and 35 birds per experimental unit in the grower phase (n = 1680 birds). In the starter phase, there was no interaction between factors on bird performance. Body weight, body weight gain, feed intake, and feed conversion ratio had a quadratic response to ME and DL levels in starter diets. In this phase, there was an interaction effect on carcass ether extract content, femur Seedor index, and tibia Seedor index and a linear main effect of DL on the relative weight of the liver. In the grower phase, factors had a significant interaction effect on body weight gain and feed intake. Feed conversion ratio responded quadratically to both factors, and body weight, femur Seedor index, tibia Seedor index, and femur density were quadratically influenced by ME. Estimates derived from overlaid contour plots showed that Japanese quail require 3030 kcal ME and 1.221% DL in the starter phase and 3055 kcal ME and 1.202% DL in the grower phase.
