This study aims to analyze the proximate composition and color of the rabbit feed. This research method uses a kinetic method that starts with drying, mixing ingredients and pelleting. The next step is to analyze rabbit feed in combination (0:0; 0:15; 5:10; 10: 5; 15: 0)% moringa leaves flour and guava leaves flour. The research parameters observed included: the determination of protein, crude fiber, crude fat, water, ash, calcium, and phosphorus. This research uses a completely randomized design. The results showed that the combination of moringa leaves flour and guava leaves flour affected the proximate composition and color of rabbit pellets. The combination (5:10)% of moringa leaves flour and guava leaves flour has the best proximate composition and dark chocolate colour.
