The animals studied were brought from natural habitats to the farm of the Animal Science Department of Agricultural Faculty, Yuzuncu YA +/- l University. Least squares means of withers height (WH), body length (BL), chest width at back of withers (CWBW), chest depth (CD), chest girth (CG) and leg girth (LG) of Norduz does were 65.9 +/- 1.08, 67.2 +/- 1.08, 21.1 +/- 0.88, 30.8 +/- 0.62, 88.9 +/- 1.78 and 60.4 +/- 1.28 cm, respectively. Least squares means of body weights after parturition of does were 41.3 +/- 2.01 kg. The means of lactation length and lactation milk yield were 226. +/- 7.2 days and 347 +/- 40.1, respectively. Twinning rate, fertility, fecundity, litter size and litter size at weaning were 30%, 98%, 1.27, 1.30 and 1.28, respectively. Means of WH, BL, CWBW, CD, CG, LG and body weights of Norduz bucks were 73.9 +/- 2.61, 75.6 +/- 2.23, 21.4 +/- 0.67, 33.9 +/- 1.15, 95.0 +/- 2.34, 69.8 +/- 2.69 cm and 58.7 +/- 3.91 kg, respectively.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessNorduz GoatReproductive TraitsBody MeasurementsMilk YieldBody WeightsArticle443Q2Q254555021789546WOS:000300079300027
