Development and evaluations of equations to predict empty body weight in pre-weaned hair sheep lambs

ABSTRACT This research aimed to assess the relationships among shrunk body weight (SBW) and empty body weight (EBW) to develop equations to estimate EBW in 121 pre-weaned hair sheep lambs from different genotypes (Pelibuey, n=39; Katahdin, n=27 and crossbred Pelibuey × Black Belly, n=55), sex (non-c...
