چکیده

A twelve-week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effect of Blood-wild Sunflower Leaf Meal (BWSLM) mixture on the performance of cross-bred (New Zealand x Chinchilla) male rabbits aged between 6-9 weeks. Thirty-two rabbits were randomly allocated to four dietary treatments of 8 rabbits per treatment in a Complete Randomized Design experiment. The BWSLM was included at 0, 5, 10 and 15% levels in diets 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively. The response criteria showed that feed intake, digestibility of dry matter, crude protein, crude fibre, either extract, ash and total digestible nutrients, feed cost/kg weight gain were significantly (p<0.05) affected. The daily weight gain and feed to gain ratio were not significantly (p>0.05) affected. The study indicated that BWSLM can be included in rabbit diet up to 15% inclusion level.
