Prediction of body weight of broilers at different ages from linear body measurements
The prediction of live body weight from six body measurements was studied using the Cobb broiler strain. A total of two hundred and sixty four chicks comprising of one hundred and thirty four at males and females were used. Mean body weights day-old, 3, 6, 9, and 12 weeks of age were 36.7g, 276.16g, 856.72, 1,334.1g and 1,762g respectively for the ...

Application of Linear Body Measurement for Predicting Body Weight of Swamp Buffalo
The objective of this research was to predict swamp buffalo weight using simple linier body measurement. The height of wither (TB), height of hip (TP), heart girth (LiD), width of chest (LD), dept of chest (DD), width of hip (LP), thurl length (PK), width of rump (LK), body length (PB) were measured in centimeters using measuring rib, one meter ruler ...
