Abstract: Nine indigenous bull calves of about 2 years old were divided into 3 groups (3 animals in each). Three rations (A,B & C) were supplied to these groups randomly. The aim of investigation was to evaluate the effect of different rations on the performance of bull calves. Total dry-matter (DM) intake (kg/d) of the animals fed on diet B (2.42) was higher than that of other two. Digestibility of DM was similar in all three cases. Digestibility values for crude Protein (CP) and Ether extract were higher in treatment B group significantly (P<0.05) than the other two groups. Digestibility of crude fibre (CF) was higher in treatment A and B groups than that of C. Treatment group B also showed higher live weight gain (152 g/d) than that of group C (115 g/d) and group A (107/gd). The differences were statistically significant (P<0.01). Feed efficiency of diet group B (16.61) was also showed statistically higher (P<0.05) than that of treatment group C and treatment group A.
