dc.description.abstractAlpine and Damascus goats were crossbred in a private goat farm established in Adana that engaged in raising Damascus goat in order to develop a goat genotype that will give more milk in the hot and humid climate in summer of cukurova region. In this study, the growth characteristics between birth and weaning of the crossbred kids were compared with Damascus kids. The animal material for the study consisted of 136 head of pure Damascus goats and 32 head of Damascus goats crossbred with Alpine goat as well as their kids. The kids were fed with their dams' milk (average 0.70 litre / head / day) for the first 15 days after birth. After this period, a mixture containing 60% goat milk and 40% kid food was used in the feeding of the kids. Kids that given kid rearing concentrate and alfalfa hay after 10th days age were weaned at the age of 60 days. At the end of the study, birth weights, weaning weights and survival rate at weaning of the crossbred and Damascus kids were determined as 2.5 +/- 0.07 kg and 2.7 +/- 0.05 kg (P <0.05), 10.3 +/- 0.11 kg and 9.5 +/- 0.06 kg (P <0.01), 75.6% and %86.3, respectively. In conclusion; Damascus goats had more live weight at birth, but this difference was reversed at weaning. On the other hand, the average survival rate was lower in the crossbreeds.en_US
