At 9 weeks of age, the first group was divided into two subgroups each had 7 rabbits and assigned to two dietary fiber 7% and 12% fiber. The second group was divided into two subgroups each 8 rabbits and assigned to two dietary fiber 12% and 17% fiber. The third group was restricted to 8 rabbits and fed the 17% fiber diet. At 9 weeks of age, 2 males and 2 females from each treatment were slaughtered to carry on the interior study.
