The objective of this trial was to evaluate performance (weight and weight gain), body measurements, feed conversion, and production costs of purebred (Alpine) and crossbred [½ Boer + ½ Alpine (½ BA) and ¾ Boer + ¼ Alpine (¾ BA)] goat kids at different ages (60, 90 and 120 days). Therefore, 41 kids in a feedlot system were used in this study. Data were submitted to analysis of variance using the Tukey test for comparison of means. No difference in […]
