Allometric growth coefficients and partitioning of fat depots in indigenous Ethiopian Menz and Horro sheep breds
A total of 146 Menz and Horro lambs of both sexes were serially slaughtered and dissected at 5 different stages of growth (i.e. at 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months of age) to define the pattern of growth and partitioning of fat among body depots of indigenous Ethiopian Menz and Horro sheep breeds.
