Comparison of Fattening Performance and Carcass Traits Measurements of Akkaraman and Awassi Male Lambs
Abstract
This research was carried out to compare fattening performance of Akkaraman and Awassi sheep. In this research, a total of 16 lambs were used, and each genotype group consisted of 8 male lambs about 3 months of age of which beginning live weight averaged was 20 kg. Lambs were fed up with ad libitum concentrated feed and given 150 g alfalfa to each animal for a fattening period of 70 days. Feed conversion ratios were found as follows; 4.93, 4.61 and total feed intakes were; 106.8 and 89.9 kg for Akkaraman and Awassi lambs respectively. Daily live weight gains were 314 and 284 g respectively. Cutting weight, cold carcass weight and carcass yield for Akkaraman were found as43.28 kg, 21.35 kg and 49.29% respectively. These values were found as 39.66, 18.90 kg and 47.62% for Awassi respectively.
