Pre-Weaning Growth Performance of Boerka (Boer >< Kacang) Crossbred Kids in the Difference Genotype and Birth Types

Breeding programs to promote the productivity of Indonesian local goats (i.e. Kacang Goats) in various regions have been carried out by cross-breeding with predominant breeds meat world such as Boer Goats. Currently, considering that genotypes cross-bred goat (namely Boerka Goat) spread and farmed farms throughout country, it is necessary evaluate increase achieved. This study aims investigate pre-weaning growth performance (Boer x Kacang) Crossbred Kids at different birth types. The was experimentally using 167 crossbred kids which arranged a Split-Plot Design covering 3 plots kid genotype, namely: BK (50% Boer, 50% Kacang), BBK (75% 25% , KBK (25% 75% each sub-plots types, namely single born (CT), twin (CK-2), triplet (CK-3), all including male female kids. response variable measured on performance, observed directly measuring weight (BL), 90-day-old weaning (BS90), daily body gain (PBBH) for period. data tabulated analyzed software “Genstat”. results showed BL, BS.90, PBBH were influenced genotype (P<0.01) type (P<0.05) kids, differed between males females kid. Male BS90, Pre-Weaning 12.88, 9.20, 9.24% higher than respectively. Based highest shown single-born BS.90 3.32±0.33, 13.06±3.46 0.114±0.020 kg,
