Heritability and Correlations Among Body Condition Score Loss, Body Condition Score, Production and Reproductive Performance [PDF]

Journal of Dairy Science, 2002
The objectives of this study were to estimate the heritability of body condition score loss (BCSL) in early lactation and estimate genetic and phenotypic correlations among BCSL, body condition score (BCS), production, and reproductive performance. Body condition scores at calving and postpartum, mature equivalents for milk, fat and protein yield, days

Body condition scoring and weight estimation of horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, 1988
Summary Three hundred and seventy two horses of varying breeds, height and fatness were weighed and measured for height at the withers. They were assessed for condition score by adaptation of a previously published method. The heart girth and length of 281 of the horses were also measured.

Body condition scoring as a predictor of body fat in horses and ponies

The Veterinary Journal, 2012
Body condition scoring systems were originally developed to quantify flesh cover in food animals and are commonly used to evaluate body fat in Equidae. The relationship between concurrent estimates of body fat content (eTBF%, deuterium oxide dilution; range, 2.7-35.6%) and subjective appraisals of body 'fatness' (body condition score, BCS; range, 1.25 ...

Relationship of body composition of mature ewes with condition score and body weight

Journal of Animal Science, 1993
Fourteen mature, ovariectomized, western-range ewes with an initial mean BW of 72 +/- 4.5 kg and mean condition score (CS) of 7.5 +/- .3 were used to evaluate the relationship between CS and body composition. Diets of chopped straw and alfalfa hay were formulated to provide either maintenance energy or less than maintenance energy (100 or 60% of ME) to

A method for estimating body condition score (BCS) in donkeys [PDF]

, 2003
Over 25,000 small fanners currently use donkey power in Northern Cameroon. The donkey's working capacity is just enough for work on small farms. The donkey's nutritional status is crucial in guaranteeing sustainable energy for work. The best nutrition is far from being attained in Northern Cameroon.
