In: Mansoura University journal of agricultural sciences 2008.v.33(8)Summary: This study aimed to investigate effect of supplementing drinking water of growing New Zealand White (NZW) rabbits with organic acid (acetic, fumaric and ascorbic) on their productive performance, feed utilization and carcass traits. Forty eight males of NZW rabbits at 7weeks of age were divided into 4 groups, 12 animals each. The experimental treatments were: no organic acids addition (Control), 0.5 ml acetic acid/ liter drinking water (Acetic group), 0.5 ml fumaric acid /liter drinking water (Fumaric group) and 0.5 g ascorbic acid /liter drinking water (Ascorbic group). Feed and drinking water were offered ad libitum from 7-12 weeks of age. The obtained results showed that the addition of acetic acid; to drinking water of growing rabbits had some positive effects on productive performance of young NZW rabbits, however, the fumaric acid addition almost had negative effects.
