The present study was to evaluate the effects of phytobiotics ginger (Zingiber officinale Rosc.) in drinking water on productive traits Kampung Unggul Balitbangtan (KUB) chickens. A total number of one hundred KUB chicks were randomly divided into four treatments with five replicates, each replicate contained five chickens. KUB chickens have received a basal diet supplemented with or without experimental treatments. Five experimental treatments were: control diet (T0), drinking water with 0.5% red ginger extract (T1), 1.0 % red ginger extract (T2), and 1.5 % red ginger extract (T3). The experimental treatments were controlled without red ginger extract (T0), drinking water with 0.5% ginger extract (T1), 1.0 % ginger extract (T2), and 1.5 % ginger extract (T3). The basal diet was yellow corn, BR2 poultry concentrate produced by PT Wonokoyo, rice brand, and vitamin premix, which contains 17.07% CP, 3097.79 kcal/kg ME, 0.81% Ca, and 0.56% Pav. Variables evaluated were productive traits of KUB chicken. Data were statistically analyzed using ANOVA in a completely randomized design. The conclusion of this research was phytobiotic ginger extract in the drinking water did not significantly affect the performance productivity of KUB chicken.
