The experiment was carried out to study the components proportions, non-carcass of the body weight and their relative growth. It was used 45 lambs: 22 non-castrated male and 23 females of Texel breed. From that group, 7 were slaughtered in the beginning of the experiment and the others when they reached 25 or 33 kg. A randomly delineation adopted was by a factorial arrangement of 3:2:2 (three methods, two sexes and two weights of slaughter). The head and paws proportions […]
