<br/><br/> 	A total of 300 commercial Cobb broiler chicks were used in this study to determine the effect of the different commercial feeds on the growth of broiler. Birds were divided into three treatments and were replicated twice with 50 birds per replication. Treatments I, II and III were fed with commercial feeds A, B and C respectively. No significant differences were observed on the seventh week average body weight and feed consumption but significant results on the feed efficiency. Mortality was low and differences were also found to be insignificant. No poultry diseases and parasites occurred throughout the experimental period. Meat from birds fed with different brands of commercial feeds have the same taste when cooked separately using the same recipes. Data on body weight showed significant difference at the age of six weeks, thus, one would have better return if he uses A feed and disposes the birds when they are six weeks old.
