| Abstract | ||
| Sixteen Kids (5-6 months of age) with average initial weight of 22.25 kg/ hd were randomly divided into four groups according to live weight the First group were fed high energy and protein, while the second group was fed low energy and high protein, the third group were fed high energy and low protein and the fourth group were fed low energy and protein respectively. Each group were fed ad-libitum. The experiment lasted 84 days to study lamb performance (daily and total weight gain, daily feed consumption and conversion efficiency). Three kids were chosen randomly from each group, after feeding period of 48 days and slaughtered to study some carcass traits (hot carcass weight, dressing percentage, rib-eye muscle area, fat thickness, percentage of fat and physical dissection of the rib cute 9.10 and 11). The results were as follows: The averages of total and daily gains were not significantly. The kids group which fed ration contained at the high energy and protein were better than other groups in feed conversion rate. Carcass traits were not significantly affected to various feeding regimes. but the results indicated that there was calculated increasing in most characteristics in first group kids. | ||
