## Abstract
Abstract Optimal growth in chickens is closely related to the level of density in the cage. This study aims to identify the optimal level of density needed by chickens from the cross between Broiler and Kampung chickens. This research was conducted in February to June 2019, in the Livestock Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture, Al Asyariah University Polewali Mandar. This study uses a randomized block design study to see the performance of Broiler Kampung crossbreed chickens at various levels of cage density. This study was divided into 3 treatment groups with each group having different levels of density namely P0 containing 8 chickens, P1 containing 10 chickens, and P2 containing 12 chickens in it. Chicken kept in cages with a size of 1x1 m. The result of the research has given more space for stock was impact (P<0.05) to feed consumption, increasing the stock body weight, and feed conversion. Feed consumption was lower for P0 treatment and it is 974.53 gr/bird and the higher is P2 (1379.29 g/bird). Increasing the stock body weight for P0 is 1334.77 gr/bird and the lower for P2 is 1237.54 g/bird. And the lowing conversion to P0 is 0.73 and the optimal to P2 is (1.11 g/bird). Accordingly, the result of this research is as the conclusion for better treatment is P0 as you see by lowing consumption, increases the maximum stock body weight and lowing conversion.
