“…Fayeye and Ayorinde (2008); Ghosh and Mandal (2008) and Yalçın et al (2006) reported that sex had no significant effects on the slaughter weight of New Zealand rabbits at 11 weeks. This report is however contrary to the reports of other authors; Adelodun (2015) who recorded higher significant (P<0.05) values female than male rabbits, while Murshed et al (2014) and Trocino et al (2002) recorded higher significant (P<0.05) values male than female rabbits. The mean values obtained for preslaughter and hot carcass weights in this study were however lower than those obtained by Adelodun (2015) who reported 2220.60±71.2 g and 2088.70±11.5 g for male and female respectively on pre-slaughter weights and 2150±14.13 g and 2023.91±15.59 g for male and female respectively on hot carcass weights.…”

“…There were no effects of sex on the results obtained for the primal cut parts in this study. This report is similar to the report of; Baiomy and Hassanien (2011); Fayeye and Ayorinde (2008); Ghosh and Mandal (2008); Murshed et al (2014), who recorded non-significant difference effects of sex on different primal cuts of rabbit carcass. Yalçin et al (2006) also observed that sex had no effects in the weights and percentages of fore legs, hind legs, ribs and loin.…”

“…Likewise, Fayeye and Ayorinde (2008) reported that sex effect was not significant on carcass characteristics such as bledweight, dress carcass weight, dressing percentage, carcass length, gastrointestinal tract, pelt, external offal, edible offal, adipose fat and primal cuts. However, Murshed et al (2014) observed that slaughter and carcass weights were affected by sex and they reported that males were slightly lower than in female rabbits. This study was therefore undertaken to evaluate and compare the carcass characteristics in sexes of rabbits slaughtered at 12 weeks under the semi-arid condition.…”

This study was carried out to investigate the carcass characteristics of male and female rabbits raised in the semi-arid condition. Methods and Results: Twenty-four (24) rabbits, comprising of 12 bucks and 12 does, were used for this study. At 12 weeks of age, the rabbits were weighed and slaughtered. Parameters measured include; pre-slaughter weight (kg), hot carcass weight (g), four primal cut weights (shoulder, ribs, loin and rump), internal organs weight (liver, lungs, kidneys, hearts, stomach and intestines). Sex had non-significant effects on the preslaughter, hot carcass and the four primal cuts weights (shoulder, ribs, loin and rump). Conclusion: Conclusively, sexual dimorphism existed in the weights of the internal organs such as; liver, lungs, kidneys and intestines where female rabbits had higher weights. However, the pre-slaughter, hot carcass, shoulder, rib, loin and rump weights were not significantly affected by sex, implying that any of the sex could be safely utilize for meat production. Pre-slaughter weight was positively correlated with the weights of hot carcass, shoulder, rib, loin and rump while negatively correlated with liver, stomach and intestine. Significance and Impact of Study: Pre-slaughter weight could be use as selection criterion for improvement of carcass quality in rabbits.

“…It contains an abundance of iron, potassium and fatty acids, which play a major role in the proper functioning of the human body [13,14]. Goat meat has a nutritional value similar to that of sheep meat [15], but its fine-fibre structure makes it easier to digest. Due to the low content of saturated fatty acids and cholesterol and a high concentration of polyunsaturated fatty acids, as well as the presence of valuable amino acids such as lysine, threonine and tryptophan, goat meat can be a healthier alternative to other red meat varieties [16,17].…”

The native breed of Carpathian goats, once abundant in the foothills of Poland, practically died out and was replaced by other, more efficient breeds. As a result of reintroduction activities and its inclusion in the genetic resources program, breeding was restored. The dynamically developing population of Carpathian goats is an extremely valuable element of biodiversity and a potential for the development of the market for its products, including goat meat. The study aimed to compare the carcass measurements and the quality and composition of meat from male kids of the Polish Carpathian native goat breed slaughtered at the ages of 9 and 12 months. Muscle samples were taken from the leg (m. biceps femoris) to determine the meat chemical composition and physicochemical and sensory parameters, as well as the fatty acid profile. The dressing percentage was higher in older kids (41.27%) than in younger ones (37.89%), as well as final weight and cold carcass weight. The weight of valuable cuts such as the loin and leg differed between groups, and it was significantly higher in 1-year-old kids. No differences were found in basic ingredients, such as moisture, protein, ash and vitamins A and E, depending on the kids’ slaughter age. The fat concentration was significantly higher in the group of younger kids. Significant differences occurred in relation to the physicochemical parameters, fatty acid profile and organoleptic properties. The findings demonstrated that the meat of older kids was characterised by darker colour and a slightly higher pH, and it contained a higher concentration of hypocholesterolemic fatty acids (DFA) and a more favourable DFA/OFA ratio. Roasted meat from the Carpathian kids scored high marks in the organoleptic assessment and the meat obtained from older animals was rated higher.

“…The lamb meat is one of the best options for consumers for which they are willing to pay high; however, it fails in gaining market space due to the lack of standardization and quality when it reaches to the consumer (Cirne et al, 2018). Meat quality and price are affected by carcass weight and it is essential to understand the various elements that can influence the primary qualities of meat and carcass quality in this context (Murshed et al, 2014;Moniruzzaman et al, 2002;Kawsar et al, 2006). Age (Barone et al, 2007), sex (Horcada et al, 1998), breed (Crouse et al, 1981) and feed type (Hopkins & Fogarty, 1998) have been found some effects on carcass weight, conformation, fat content, and pH, texture, instrumental color, and nutritional composition.…”

The aim of this study was to compare the productive and carcass traits of native region lambs of Bangladesh. A total 30 lambs were taken for productive performances from three regions (Jamuna basin, Barind region and Coastal belt) and total 27 lambs were considered for evaluating carcass traits parameters for 3 treatment groups (T1= 6 months, T2= 9 months, T3=12 months). Statistical analysis was conducted by SAS where statistical model was 3×2(growth performance) and 3×3 (growth performance and carcass traits) factorial experimental model in Completely Randomized Design (CRD). Both sex and lamb types had significant effect (p<0.05) on body weight at different ages. Among all lamb types, Coastal belt lamb(CBL) had the highest body weight (1.65, 6.55, 12.81, 15.59, and 19.97) kg followed by Jamuna basin lamb (JBL) (1.45, 6.51, 9.48, 13.86 and 17.21) kg and Barind region lamb (BRL) (1.5, 5.69, 8.88, 11.44 and 13.24) kg at birth, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months, respectively. The ADG was significantly higher in JBL and CBL (59.07 and 61.17g/d) than BRL (53.15 g/d). Dressing % was higher in later ages; 9 and 12 months (47.38 and 47.04%). Lamb types and slaughter ages had significant effect (p<0.05) on blood, skin, viscera, head, leg, pluck, neck, shoulder, rack and loin wt. % except shank where only slaughter ages had significant effect but effect of lamb types was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Lamb types (T), slaughter ages (L) and its interaction (T×L) had significant effect (p<0.05) on kidney, liver, heart, lung and spleen wt%. The CBL showed superior performances over JBL and BRL in terms of overall body weight and their carcass traits parameters largely varied in different lamb types for different slaughter ages were the core findings of the present study.
