Characteristics of live animal allometric measurements associated with body fat in fat-tailed sheep
Body weight (LW), condition score (BCS), tail length on inner side of tail (TL), tail volume measured by water displacement (TV) and tail circumference (TC), width (TW) as well as thickness at the base (TT) were measured in live Menz (n=303) and Horro (n=151) sheep to determine their possible use in...
