This study aimed to evaluate the effects of inclusion of soybean hulls in the replacement of alfalfa hay on performance, of growing rabbits. A total of 30 rabbits of New Zealand White kind were divided into three treatments, experimental compounds in the pattern diet (without inclusion of soybean hulls), and the diets with 50% and 100% replacement of alfalfa by soybean hulls in their experimental diets. It was concluded that the soybean hulls can be included on replace of alfafa hulls up 100% in rabbits diets. However, the use of co-product in animal nutrition need more detailed studies because of the paucity of data.
