  • Growth rate and carcass traits in capons = Rastnost in klavne lastnosti kopunov
    Terčič, Dušan ; Malovrh, Špela, 1968- ; Holcman, Antonija
    Thirty-nine capons and slips of Slovenian provenance barred Prelux (Prelux-G) and thirty-eight capons and slips of Slovenian autochthonous Styrian breed (partridge variation) were comprised in an ... experiment in order to compare their growth performance and carcass traits. Prelux-G cockerels were caponized at age eight weeks, and Styrian ones at age nine weeks. They were fattened in poultry houses with free range till age thirty-three weeks on three different locations (three breeders). Body masses between capons and slips did not differ significantly at any age. Prelux-G birds were heavier than capons and slips of Styrian breed. Carcass traits weremeasured on a sample of eight capons and seven slips of Prelux-G, and five capons and four slips of Styrian breed. Live mass before slaughter (LM), carcass mass (CM) and fatness (percentage of abdominal fat) in capons were significantly higher than in slips. Prelux-G animals achieved significantly higher LM, CM and dressing percentage in comparison with Styrian birds (P < 0.0001). Fatness did not differ significantly between breeds. Skin colour was significantly different in capons compared to slips in lightness (L), redness (a) and yellowness (b), while only redness differed between Prelux-G and Styrian breed.
