    In my book, Composition of food,(USDA) there are 207 calories per 100 gram edible portion, skin removed. dark meat chicken, cooked, raw 154

    100 grams is about 1/4 pound.

    roaster was less,132 raw and 184 cooked.

    Fryer was 112 and 220

    Chicken all classes was listed as 130 calories raw and 176 calories cooked for dark meat, no skin.

    I'm not sure but Dark meat is like 2times the amount of fat as white. Go on line and compare the two. I may be wrong but next time get the white , good luck ,,sorry if I did not help that much

    Here's a tip.

    It doesn't matter how many calories are in the chicken.

    Go for a jog, or ride a bicycle. Do some exercies. Worrying about every calorie in your food is a waste of time.
