CM0 = control diet with no CM inclusion, CM25 = control diet in which 2.5% of soybean meal was replaced with CM; CM50 = control diet in which 5% of soybean meal was replaced with CM; CM125 = control diet in which 12.5% of soybean meal was replaced with CM; CM175 = control diet in which 17.5% of soybean meal was replaced with CM; SEM = standard error of the mean; * = (P < 0.05); ** = (P < 0.01); NS = not significant.

^a,b Within a row, different superscripts denote significant differences (P < 0.05) between dietary treatments.
