Baby Corn Husk ensiled without additives in all treatments gave good quality silages (pH3.67-3.85) with dry matter digestibility of 80.60, 76.24, 73.20, 82.26 and 48.44 %. BCH ensiled with 20 % rice bran had higher dry matter intakes about 670.3 g/d (2.06 % BW). BCH and BCH ensiled with additives had higher digestibilities than the wilted silage. Total digestible nutrients were 75.05, 62.04, 80.40 and 85.85 %. The addition of 25 % ground corn increased the silage dry matter by about 5.11. Dry matter digestibility of group 1 (fed BCH silage) was higher than group 2 (76.24 % VS 50.98 %) and had a higher digestible dry matter intake (3.08 VS 2.11 kg/d). The average daily gain and feed conversion ratio of the group fed BCH silage were better than the group fed Napier grass (ADG was 674.7 VS 461.5 g/d) and FCR was 6.0 VS 8.9)
