Has a fast growth rate
Buck weighs about 110-135 kgs and does weighs about 90-100 kgs
Kids weighs about 20-30 kgs at 90 days of age
Feed management
Grazing along with concentrate feeding gives maximum growth rate
Feeding protein rich green fodder such as acacia, leucerne and cassava and are important sources of dietary nitrogen.
Farmers can cultivate agathi, subabul and glaricidia trees along the border of the farm and used as green fodder
Fodders and trees cultivated in one acre of land is enough to feed 15-30 goats
Deworming
Before breeding the doe should be dewormed. Those goats affected with worm infestation are lean and dull
Kids should be dewormed at one month of age. The life cycle of worms is three weeks, so de-worming again at two months of age is recommended
Pregnant does should be dewormed 2-3 weeks before kidding.
Does in early pregnancy (upto 2 months) should not be dewormed to avoid abortion.
Vaccinations
Kids should be given first dose of Enterotoxaemia and Tetanus vaccination at 8 weeks of age and again at 12 weeks of age..
Does should be given Enterotoxaemia and Tetanus vaccination 4-6 weeks before breeding season and 4-6 weeks before kidding.
Bucks should be vaccinated with Enterotoxaemia and Tetanus once in a year
