All diets were given ad libitum.From 11 days to weaning at 28 days, little feed was eaten and there were no significant effects of the treatments. From 29 to 35 days, daily gain and feed conversion were best on the fine, medium and pelleted diets. From 36 to 56 days, pellets and crumble gave the best performance.
