Fifty (50) growing rabbits aged five-seven weeks old, cross bred were fed on varying inclusion level of palm kernel cake (PKC) as replacement for maize to evaluate the growth rate and cost efficiency. The experimental animals were randomly allotted to five experimental diets replicated twice with five (5) rabbits per replicate in a completely randomized design (CRD). The determined proximate analysis results of palm kernel cake (PKC) as the test ingredient showed 92.13% Dry matter, 16.00% Crude protein, 17.90% Crude fibre, 4.19% Ash content, 11.61% Ether extract and 58.00% Nitrogen free extract. The experimental diets contain (0%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40%) of PKC and was fed to the rabbits for
