Abstract: This study was conducted to determine the effect of restricted feeding of broiler finisher ration on broilers. It was conducted at poultry project, Department of Animal Science, Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite from October 2, 1976 to November 27, 1976. A total of one hundred (100) day old Indian River broiler chicks were used in this experiment. 'They were equally divided at random into four lots having a total of 25 birds in each lot. They were subjected to the following treatments: Lot I served as the control and received continuous mash feeding without corn grit. Lot II with mash every other day, and during "off day" corn grit were given. Lot III have two days continuous mash feeding, and every third day, being their "oft' day", corn grit were provided. Lot IV have three days continuous mash feeding, and on the fourth day, during "off day", corn grit were made available. The average final weight was highest in Lot III with an average of 1.09 kilograms, followed by Lot IV with 1.04 kilograms, Lot I with 1.03 kilograms and Lot II with .83 kilogram. The average amount of feeds consumed to produce a kilogram gain in weight was lowest in Lot III with 2.37 kilograms, followed by Lot I with 2.44 kilograms, Lot IV with 2.48 kilograms, and Lot II with 3.22 kilograms. The average cost of feeds to produce a kilogram gain in weight was lowest in Lot III with /3.60, followed by Lot I with /3.71, Lot IV with /3.77, and Lot II with /4.59. The average percentage of mortality was highest in Lot III with a mortality rate of four percent, Lot I, II, and Lot IV have no mortality. The average net labor return per bird based on the price of broiler at /7.70 per kilogram live weight were as follows: Lot III with /1.70, Lot I with e1.59, Lot IV with /1.53, and Lot II with /0.40. I7esults revealed that restricted feeding of broiler finisher ration is more economical and has no bad effect on the physical condition of the experimental birds, particularly the restriction of mash feed for one day after two consecutive days feeding of mash feeds, Statistical analysis revealed that the growth of broiler is greatly influenced by using corn grit as indicated by a highly significant result,
