An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of feeding different calf starter rations, weaning age and their interactions on testicular growth and body weight of Borena Friesian (BF) crossbred bull calves at the age of 105 (closer to weaning) and 202 (nearly 6 months) days. Statistical a...
