The objectives of the study were to determine male local sheep performances fed with different level of expired bread. Twelve male local sheep with body weight 21,54 ± 1,93 kg (CV = 8,82%) were used in this study and divided into 4 feed treatments and 3 replications. The design of this study is a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The first treatment P0 was a control, sheep fed with 100% basal concentrates. The second treatment P1, sheep fed with 95% basal concentrates plus 5% expired bread. The third treatment P2, sheep fed with 90% basal concentrates plus 10% expired bread. And the last treatment P3, sheep fed with 85% basal concentrates plus 15% expired bread. Data collected were dry matter intake (g/day), body weight gain (g/day), feed conversion ratio (FCR) and Feed cost per gain (Rp/kg). The result showed that feed treatments didn't significantly affect dry matter intake, body weight gain, FCR and IOFC. The average of dry matter intake of treatment P0, P1, P2 and P3 respectively was 1120,76; 1097,22; 1167,11 and 1132,73 g/day. The average of body weight gain of treatment P0, P1, P2 and P3 respectively was 371,30; 335,56; 363,33 and 306,67 g/day. The average of FCR of treatment P0, P1, P2 and P3 respectively was 3,09; 3,23; 3,43; and 3,33. The average of feed cost per gain of treatment P0, P1, P2 and P3 respectively was Rp. 11.483/kg; Rp. 12.156/kg; Rp. 11.588/kg and Rp. 12.502/kg. In conclusion, the use of expired bread to the level of 15% doesn't significantly affect DMI, ADG and FCR. Feed cost per Gain is obtained from IDR 11.483 to IDR 12.502.
