Growth Performance of Australorp x Tswana Crossbred Chickens under
Indigenous Tswana chickens are better adapted to prevailing environmental conditions and diseases than their exotic counterparts. They however exhibit slower growth rate and less mature final weight than their exotic counterparts. Crossbreeding of indigenous Tswana chickens with exotic chicken breeds can therefore be used as an alternative strategy to improve growth performance of indigenous Ts...
متن کاملBirth weight and postnatal growth of pure-bred kittens.

However, there are three distinct environments where faithfulness is respected and the marked nasal peaks are preserved onto the surface. These three environments are when the nonparsing of the nasal will result in: (i) a word below the minimal word length requirement of...
متن کاملEffect of Different Feeding Times on the Performance of Cross Bred Dairy Cattle during Summer Stress
The livestock sector in Pakistan occupies a unique position in the national agenda of economic development.
