Feasibility of heart girth models in estimating live weight of fat‐long‐tailed sheep
Fat deposition in the brisket of Ethiopian fat‐long‐tailed sheep may interfere with the correlation between heart girth (HG) and live weight (LW), bringing into question the accuracy of HG models for LW prediction that are currently in use. This study assessed the accuracy of published HG‐based pred...
