Goat feeding behavior was an important study in livestock. This study aimed to examine the relationship feeding activity towards consumption, digestibility, and body weight gain in breeding doe Etawah Crossbreeed. This study uses 12 PE doe with an average weight of 40.40 ± 3:19 kg range. This study uses the exploration and correlation analysis. Variables measured were feeding behavior (time spent concentrates, forage consumed within one hour, and a feeding time ) and performance of doe (consumption, digestibility, and body weight gain). Results show the time spent concentrate has a weak relationship with a positive correlation to consumption. Forage consumed within an hour of having a relationship with a weak negative correlation with dry matter digestibility. Feeding time had a weak association with a negative correlation with body weight daily. Feeding behavior was needed in the management of livestock feeding. So that the management could be seen aas feeding their effects on animal performance.
