Abstract
The growth in young goats graded up breed according to the birth date was analyzed in this study. The study was carried out with 50 young goats which were born on February and 32 on April. Goat growth was characterized on the ground of body weight, daily body weight gain and zoometrical measurements form birth to 6 month life. Body weight daily body weight gain and zoometrical measurements of young goats were affected by the date of kidding over investigated period. Young goats which were born on February grew more intensively and also characterized by greater values of all body conformation traits than young goats in the same age, which were born in April.
