Body Measurement of Red Sokoto Bucks in Nigeria and Their Relationship with Testicular Biometrics
Ninety Red Sokoto bucks were used to assess the relationship between body, testicular and epididymal measurements in three age groups (group 1: 7-12 months; group 2: between 1 and 2 years and group 3: older than 2 years). The effect of age on body and testicular / epididymal measurements was analyzed. A predictive model was developed for each of the testicular / epididymal measurements using li...

This study was undertaken to compare the efficiency of fresh and frozen-thawed buck semen on in vitro fertilization (IVF) of goat oocytes. Cumulus oocytes complexes (COCs) were collected by aspiration of 2-6 mm diameter follicles, which were obtained from slaughterhouse. Upon grading, only normal quality COCs were maturated in TCM-199 for 48 hours. The percentage of COCs reached to the M-II sta...
متن کاملBody Measurements and Some Coat Characteristics of Shammi (Damascus) Goats Raised in North Sinai, Egypt
Harsh conditions, almost desert, only goats and Bedouins could be found all over the North Sinai region. Shammi goats are the common and favorable breed in this region. All animals have the same feeding system based mainly on natural vegetation most of the year. Every midmonth and during one year. Sixty-five Shammi goats were examined to determine the pattern of inner coat fibers. In mid Februa...
متن کاملThe accuracy of prediction of body weight from body measurements in beef cattle
The objective of this study was to determine the accuracy of prediction of body weight from body measurements in beef cattle. Wither height, chest girth, body length, chest depth, hip width and hip height measurements were obtained from Holstein, Brown Swiss and crossbred (n=140). Determination coefficients (R2) of regression equation that included all body measurements were higher in Brown Swi...
