A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of feeding bypass fat and yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) supplemented total mixed ration comprising of 60: 40 concentrates: jowar hay on the feed intake, rumen fermentation pattern and blood biochemical profile of weaner Surti kids. Twenty-four growing Surti kids of similar body weight were randomly allotted to four groups, six in each. The kids were fed TMR with no bypass fat and yeast (T1); TMR with 2% yeast (T2); TMR with 2% bypass fat (T3) and TMR with a combination of 2% each of yeast and bypass fat (T4). The DM intake of experimental kids did not differ significantly (P>0.05). The rumen parameters studied were within the normal range. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae in combination with bypass fat (T4) group showed highest (P
