Abstract: 
This study aims to determine the effect of giving cassava peel flour at various levels of ration administration on ration consumption, body weight gain, and ration conversion in quail aged 1-6 weeks. With the treatment level T0 = without adding cassava peel flour, T1 = 3% cassava peel flour, T2 = 6% cassava peel flour, T3 = 9% cassava peel flour. Data were analyzed by means of variance with parameters of ration consumption, body weight gain, and ration conversion. The design used was a non-factorial complete randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 5 replications consisting of 5 animals. The results of the analysis of variance showed that all treatments had no significant effect or were unable to balance the T0 treatment with 0% cassava peel flour as a control or comparison feed on ration consumption.
