Abstract
An experiment in feeding pre-starter diets was carried out on local chicken (KUB chicken) raised to the age of 84 days. Four hundred and eighty day-old KUB chicks were allocated to experimental diets of P1 = standard diet without pre-starter; P2 = OASIS ® pre-starter for 48 hours feeding; P3 = COBA-1, a mixture of 76.3% yolk powder, 0.76% inulin powder, 7.63 % honey and 15.3% tomato sauce, for 24 hours feeding; P4 = P3 given for 48 hours feeding; P5 = fresh papaya for 24 hours feeding; P6 = P5 for 48 hours feeding; P7 = fasting for 24 hours and P8 = fasting for 48 hours. Following treatment, the chicks were then fed with standard diet, containing 17.5 % crude protein with 2800 kcal ME/kg up to the end of the experiment. Results showed that the group of chicken on pre-starter diet of ripe papaya fruit (P5 and P6), responded better EPEF (European Performance Efficiency Factor) value of 442 and 356 g/bird, respectively in chicken of P5 and P6. This better response was due to particularly higher viability and the efficiency in utilization of feed.

Summary
Sebanyak 480 ekor anak ayam umur satu hari dipakai dalam percobaan yang diamati sampai dengan umur 84 hari. Anak-anak ayam dialokasikan pada ransum percobaan, yang terdiri dari P1 = ransum baku tanpa pemberian pre-starter; P2 = pre-starter OASIS® diberika selama 48 jam; P3 = pre-starter COBA-1 berisi campuran 76,3% tepung kuning telur infertil setelah inkubasi 7 hari, 0,76% tepung inulin, 7,64% madu dan 15,3% saus tomat, yang diberikan selama 24 jam; P4 = P3 yang diberikan selama 48 jam; P5 = papaya matang diberikan 24 jam; P6 = P5 diberikan selama 48 jam; P7 = puasa selama 24 jam dan P8 = puasa selama 48 jam. Persen jumlah ayam yang hidup dalam setiap ulangan Bobot hidup (g/ekor) Umur pada saat pengamatan dihentikan (hari) Rasio konsumsi ransum (g/ekor) dengan pertambahan BH (g/ekor). Dua dan tujuh hari setelah menetas, sebanyak dua ekor anak ayam diambil secara acak dari setiap ulangan untuk dikorbankan untuk pengukuran sisa yolk sac. Data dianalisis dengan menggunakan perangkat lunak SPSS 16 (Ghozali 2005)
