The study was carried out to investigate the effect of dried cabbage leaf residue on the carcass characteristics (live weight, bled weight, carcass weight, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, small intestine, large intestine, forelimbs, hindlimbs, head, back and breast) of weaner rabbits. Using a completely randomized design, 24 weaner rabbits were randomly allotted to four dietary treatments having 0.0%, 5.0%, and 10.0% and 15.0% levels of inclusion of dried cabbage leaf residue in their rations. Significant difference (p0.05) was observed in the live weight, bled weight, and carcass weight between rabbits fed dried cabbage leaf residue and those not. It is recommended that dried cabbage leaf residue be used in supplementing weaner rabbits’ diet....Preview Download Preview +Other Animal Nutrition project topics and materials you might be interested in»Performance response of feedlot Bunaji Bulls to dietary inclusion of Thaumatococcus Daniellii leaf meal»Effect of feeding frequency on nutrient digestibility of west african dwarf goats»Performance of rabbits fed diet containing graded levels of sweet detar (Detarium Microcarpum) fruit meal»Apparent nutrient digestibility of growing pigs fed graded levels of cassava peels meal supplemented with probiotics (lactic dry)»Carcass characteristics of rabbit-fed diet containing graded levels of dried cabbage (Brassica oleracea) leaf residues
