EFFECT OF USING DIFFERENT LEVELS OF FENUGREEK SEEDS IN FEEDS DAMASCUS GOAT ON MILK PRODUCTION AND COMPOSITION AND OFFSPRING'S

Abstract

This study was conducted in the field of animal resource department-university of mosul on 15 Damascus Goat (2-3 years) were randomly divided into three equal groups,these groups were fed on three rations contain Isonitregeous protein and isoenergetic but are different in Fenugreek seeds percentage(0,5, 10 %) Fenugreek seeds recorded. milk yield and milk composition (fat, protein, lactose, and solid component) body weight was increased significantly (P ≤ 0.05) higher milk yield groups 1,2 and control and decreased significantly (P ≤ 0.05) in fat percentage batwing group2 and control.Significant increase (P ≤ 0.05) in the offspring body weight of the treated groups during the period
