The present invention relates to a method for producing a treated animal feed having a comparatively higher metabolizable energy value and fewer oligosaccharides than in untreated feed, with the present method including the steps of adding an enzyme at ambient conditions to the animal feed and allowing the enzyme to hydrolyze the oligosaccharides.
