Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of different concentrate feed allowances on behavioral traits in young female goats. Concentrate feed was offered to control C group animals at 2 of live weight, whereas ad libitum AL group animals were offered ad libitum concentrate feed. Animals were allowed to graze for 4 h in the pasture and spent the rest of the time indoor. Behavioral observations were carried out once a week for 14 weeks via Time-Sampling Method. Feeding behaviors grazing, rumination, roughage and concentrate feed intake were significantly affected by the level of daily concentrate feed allowance p0.001.
