To determine the influence of the age of the ewe on characteristics such as body mass, greasy fleece mass, clean fleece mass, fiber diameter and staple length the data obtained from 500 ewes born between 1970 and 1979 was used. Their body mass at mating increased from 55 kg to 61 kg between the a...

Records of the Esenburg stud where the Dormer sheep breed originated in 1941, were anaysed from 1941 to 1990 to investigate non-genetic factors contributing to early growth traits. The fixed effects, identified as having a significant (P< 0.01) effect on birth weight, weaning weight, average dail...

Locally purchased indigenous goats of the Red Sokoto breed and West African Dwarf sheep were splenectomized after they had been certified free from any infection with blood or helminth parasite. Clinical observations were made on the splenectomized animals and blood smears were made on every occa...
