THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BODY WEIGHT AND LINEAR BODY MEASUREMENTS IN BUNAJI CALVES AT DIFFERENT PHASES OF GROWTH

ABSTRACT

A total of seven (7) Bunaji calves were used to study the relationship between body weight and linear body measurements at different phases of growth (phase 1, 1-4weeks, phase 2, 5-8weeks, phase 3, 9-12weeks), estimate growth rate and predict body weight from linear body measurements of body length (BL), body circumference (BC), neck length (NL), neck circumference (NC), girth circumference (GC), height at wither (HW), tail length (TL) and ear length (EL). The results showed that weight gain at phases 1, 2 and 3 were 6.69, 4.19 and 4.56kg respectively. Weight gain values for the second and third phases were significantly different (P
