The main objective of the study was to elucidate the effects of high
ambient temperature on productive performance and physiological response
of NZW growing rabbits supplemented or non- supplemented with different
levels of methionine, lysine or their combination. A total of 150 unsexed
NZW growing rabbits aged about 28 days, 650 g with an average initial
weight were divided into 10 treatment groups, each treatment group divided
into 3 rep. of 5 rabbits each. The treatment groups were assigned as
follow: T1: un-supplemented group, rabbits were fed on a basal diet. Groups
from T2:T10 were fed on a basal diet plus meth., lys. or their combination as
follow: T2: 25% meth., T3: 50% meth., T4: 100% meth., T5: 25% lys., T6:
50% lys., T7: 100% lys., T8: 25% meth. + 25% lys., T9: 50% meth. + 50%
lys. and T10: 100% meth. +100% lys. All rabbits were kept under the
ambient temperature during the period from June to July and the average
ambient temperatures recorded during the experimental period was 33ºC ±
2ºC and 23 ºC ± 2ºC for maximum and minimum indoor temperature, resp.
At 12 week of age (WOA) the temperature was increased to 36ºC±1ºC / 6
hrs daily for 3 consecutive days at the end of the experimental period. The
results showed that live body weight, body weight gain and fee
