Some morphological and physiological characteristics of South Karaman sheep II. Curly pelt and wool features

Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the pelt and some wool characteristics of South Karaman sheep. The animal material of the study was selected from the South Karaman sheep raised by the nomadic system in Tarsus district of Mersin province. Lambs were observed during the birth period to determine the pelt status. In order to determine the fineness and length characteristics of the fleece, wool samples were taken from the rib area of lambs and ewes. These samples were evaluated with instrumental analysis devices. At the end of the study, it was determined that the lambs of this breed could have astrakhan-like, curly pelt. In addition, it was determined that the thickness and length of fleece in lambs and ewes varies between 29.1 µ and 32.4µ (P>0.05) and between 23.8 cm and 36.5 cm (P<0.01), respectively.
