Results of the Weender analysis of the diets (18 samples/diet)

	HC diet (g/100 g food)	HF diet (g/100 g food)
Dry matter	18.5 ± 0.6	18.6 ± 0.9
Organic matter	17.2 ± 0.6	17.1 ± 0.8
Crude ash	1.3 ± 0.1	1.5 ± 0.1
Crude fiber	0.4 ± 0.2	0.2 ± 0.2
Crude protein	6.9 ± 0.4	9.3 ± 0.3
Crude fat	2.8 ± 0.8	5.5 ± 1.4
Nitrogen free extract	7.1 ± 0.6	2.2 ± 1.2
Carbohydrate	7.4 ± 0.6	2.4 ± 1.2
Starch	5.1 ± 0.5	n.d.
ME MJ/100 g food	320	391
g CP/ME MJ	21.6	23.9

ME = metabolizable energy, CP = crude protein, n.d. = not detectable (carbohydrate=crude fiber + nitrogen free extract).
