dc.description.abstractThe effect of dietary boiled African star apple kernel meal (BASAKM) as substitute for dietary maize on haemato-biochemical indices of growing rabbits were investigated. Seventy five 35-d old crossbreed (New Zealand x California white) rabbits weighing 591.00±0.15 g were allotted to 5 treatments (15 rabbits per treatment; 5 rabbits per replicate) in a completely randomized design. Five experimental diets (pelleted; 3 mm diameter and 6 mm in length) were formulated such that BASAKM replaced dietary maize at 0 %, 25 %, 50 %, 75 % and 100 % in rabbit diets (Diets 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, respectively). A control diet (diet 1) had crude protein: 17 %, crude fibre: 10.35 %, metabolizable energy: 2647.50 kcal/kg. The study lasted for 56-d. At 91 d of age, the neutrophil level of rabbits fed diets 2, 3 and 4 decreased significantly compared to those fed the control diet (-5.20 %, -3.65 % and -9.69 %, respectively; P=0.0384. Results indicate that growing rabbits could tolerate BASAKM in their diets without adverse effect on haemato-biochemical indices of growing rabbitsen_US
