Background Rabbit breeding with high performance imported ones would be of benefit for genetic diversity and improvement of performance in domestic rabbit breeds. The rearing of more productive rabbit breeds could be pathway to improve the productivity and reduce the production cost. Maternal nutritional status exert a great influence on reproductive functions of does, which may expand from con...

In African antelope and North American cervids, breeding males during the rut engage in less oral self-grooming, and harbor a greater density of ticks, compared with conspecific females and non-breeding males. The purpose of this study was to experimentally test the proposition that down-regulation of self grooming in some male bovids occurs via the direct or indirect action of testosterone. Do...

The study pertains to estimation of carcass cuts in Soviet Chinchilla bucks. The results indicate that the slaughter weight significantly influences the weight of the fore legs (P< 0.05) and hind legs (P< 0.01). The quadratic regression equations provide the best estimators for all the carcass cuts and the carcass as a whole. The accuracy of the predictors is highest for

This study was designed to determine the effects of graded levels Adansonia digitata leaves on semen quality in Red Sokoto bucks (RSB). Twenty RSB were randomly assigned into four groups comprising 5 each. Groups A, B, C, and D given 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% A. leave powder, respectively, for 14 weeks. Semen collected every 2 weeks evaluated volume, sperm cell motility, pH, percentage abnormalities, l...

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of intra-testicular injection of formalin and external ligation of the spermatic cord in inducing sterilization in bucks. Twelve's adult bucks were used which allocated randomly and equally into three groups. The first group served as a control group injected (5) ml distilled water intra-testicular, while the second group injected (5) ml of 3% form...
