Comparative Study on Growth and Conformation of Male Dumbi Lambs under Two Management Systems

A study was carried out on 12 male lambs of Dumbi sheep breed reared under two management systems at the| department of Livestock Management Faculty of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Sciences, Sindh Agriculture University Tando jam. The lambs of Dumbi breed were randomly divided into two groups i.e. group A and B (6 lambs in each group). The group A was reared under semi intensive management system (concentrate and open grazing) whereas animals in group B were kept under intensive management system (concentrate and green fodder). The experiment was lasted for (8) weeks and the observations for body weight and body conformation traits (girth, height and length) were recorded on weekly basis. The result indicated that the average body weight of lambs in group A (12.5 kg) was statistically higher (

Comparative Study on Growth and Conformation of Male Teddy Kids under Two Management Systems

An experiment was conducted to compare the growth and conformation of male Teddy kids (3 months age), under two management systems during the year 2014. The kids were kept at the livestock experimental station, | department of Livestock Management, Faculty of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Sciences, Sindh Agriculture University Tandojam. A total of twelve (12) Teddy kids were randomly divided into two groups i.e. A and B having six kids each. The kids of group A were reared under semi intensive management system (concentrates and open grazing) whereas kids of group B were kept under intensive management system (concentrates and green fodder). The duration of the experiment was eight (8) weeks and the observations for growth and conformation traits (girth, height and length) were recorded on weekly basis. The result revealed that the average body weight of kids in group A (8.29 kg) had significantly higher (
