Abstract: NABOR, RANDY CASIONAN, Don Severino Agricultural College, Irk:tang, Cavite, April 1996. "Performance of Broilers Fed with Four Brands of Commercial Feeds," Adviser: Dr. Magdalena N. Alcantara. A total of 96 straight-run day-old commercial broiler chicks was used in this study to determine which among the common available commercial broiler feeds in Cavite would give the best performance of birds in terms of growth rate, feed consumption, feed conversion efficiency and monetary return. Birds were distributed into four treatments with four replications. The brands of feeds used were Hubbard, Selecta, Sustamina and Purina. Letter codes W, X, Y, and Z. were designated in each treatment for ethical purposes. Various patterns of differences between treatment means were noted with respect to their body weights, feed consumption and feed conversion efficiencies. A relatively better performance of birds in Treatment IV was observed, with respect to the overall outcome of the study particularly in the IOFCC. Mortality was recorded highest in Treatment I (12.5 %) although this was not related to feeds. At the time of the study, the four commercial feeds tested were proven potentially different in sustaining the growth performance of the birds. However, factors like feed preparation-crumble and mash, as well as the unequal male to female ratio of birds could have been the contributing factors in the said result
