The experiment aimed  to know the physiological response of Etawah Crossbred pregnant goat were fed katuk  leave meal (Sauropus androgynus) and Zn biocomplex as supplement. Sixteen heads of Ettawa crossbred pregnant goat in early third  months pregnancy were used in this experiment with 38 ± 2.3 kg of body weight. Completely random design with  4 treatments and  4 replications were applied in this experiment. Those treatment were,  R0: farmer pattern fed (Leucaena + 0.5kg consentrate; R1: farmer pattern fed + 77.5g of katuk leave meal; R2: R1 + Zn biocomplex 1.03g/kg consentrate; dan R3: R1 + Zn biocomplex 2.06g/kg consentrate. Variable measured consist of  the respiration rate, pulse rate and rectal temperature, using conventional method. Data were tabulated and analized by analysis of variance. Result showed that treatment have significant effect on respiration rate (P<.01)  but no significant on pulse rate and rectal temperature of Ettawa crossbred pregnant goat. The average of respiration rate  R0 to R3 were: 58.21;59.88; 61.80 and 63.31 breath/minute, respectively; average of pulse rate  R0 to R3 were: 79.0; 79.85;81.1 dan 82.1 breath/minute; average of rectal temperature  R0 to R3were:  38.3; 37.55; 38.27 and 38.36oC.  It can be concluded that there was increase in repiration rate of Etawah Crossbred pregnant goat due to supplementation of katuk leave meal and Zn biocomplex.

The present study aimed to evaluate some physiological variables of thin tailed sheep and Garutsheep fed by concentrate and mung bean sprout waste diet. The physiological variables includedrectal temperature, respiration rate, and heart rate. Six Javanese thin tailed sheeps (16.27±0.86kg) and six Garut sheeps (10.68±1.82 kg) which aged less a year were selected for 4 treatments byfactorial design 2 x 2. The first factor was diet (concentrate and bean sprout waste) and the secondfactor was kind of sheep (Javanese thin tailed sheep and Garut sheep). The sheep were fedindividually for a maintenance requirement on body weight. Ambient temperature, relativehumidity, and physiological variables were measured every morning before feeding during 8weeks. The result showed that the physiological response of Javanese thin tailed sheep and Garutsheep fed by concentrate and mung bean sprout waste diet showed no interaction (P>0.05). Thephysiological response of sheep was not significantly different but the feed treatments had asignificant effect (P>0.05). Rectal temperature, heart rate, and respiration rate were still classifiedas normal so the mung bean sprout waste diet can be used as an alternative source of protein tosubstitute concentrate.

Observations in the shed were made for 3 years on groups of cattle and buffaloes of both sexes for pulse rate, respiration rate, rectal temperature and haemoglobin level during the summer months under low and high humid conditions.The average figures for these physiological reactions were always less for buffaloes than for cattle under both dry and humid conditions.Under high humidity conditions cattle cows showed a significant increase in the pulse rate and decrease in rectal temperature whereas respiration rate remained unchanged. In the buffalo cows these physiological reactions showed less change. In both the haemoglobin level was significantly lower during the rainy season.On exposure to direct sun, the buffalo reacted very badly; the Iberia index was 88 for cattle and 61 for buffalo.Because of the smaller variation in the physiological reactions due to increase in humidity at higher temperature in buffaloes (85–93° F.), this species may be considered a better dairy animal than cattle in humid tropical zones if they are protected from direct sun, which can be easily done by altering the time of grazing from day to night.

Abstract. The effects of time after birth and of twinning on rectal temperature (RT), heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR) and body weight (BW) values were evaluated in five singleton Comisana lambs (three males and two females), five singleton Maltese Kids (three males and two females), four couples of twin Comisana lambs (four males and four females) and four couples of twin Maltese kids (four males and four females) during the first month of life. For all kids and lambs, RT, HR, RR and BW were recorded after 1 and 24 h from birth and every 2 days until the 30th day of life. The application of two-way repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed a statistically significant effect of time (P < 0.0001) on RT, HR, RR and BW values in all lambs and kids during the first month of life. Any significant effect of twinning (P > 0.05) on all studied parameters was found in lambs, whereas statistically significant differences in BW, RT and HR values (P < 0.01) were found between twin and singleton kids throughout the first month of life. The results obtained in this study make a contribution to the knowledge of homeostatic, cardiorespiratory and thermoregulatory adaptations occurring in singleton lambs and kids and in twin lambs and kids during the first 30 days of life. Our findings indicate that the BW, RT, HR and RR values, whose homeostasis is still evolving in newborn, should be interpreted dynamically as a function of the period of postnatal adaptation and also of twinning.

SUMMARYSix mature rams were used in a 6 × 6 latin square experiment. They were put on a high concentrate ad lib. diet. Voluntary food intake was measured on the rams which received the following treatments: control, thiouracil, sodium acetate, thyroxine, sodium acetate plus thiouracil and sodium acetate plus thyroxine. Acetate was infused intraruminally at the level of 6·2 g/kg W0·75 per day for 4 successive days. Thyroxine was injected subcutaneously at the level of 0·3, 0·6, 0·9 and 0·9 mg/kg W0·75/day successively. Thiouracil was given orally as the propionyl derivative at a level of 0·03, 0·06, 0·06 and 0·06 g/kg W0·75/day successively.Respiration rate, pulse rate and rectal temperature were measured before and 1 h after dosing. A period of at least 25 days was allowed between the trials. All the results were calculated as feed intake (g dry matter)/kg W0·75.Injection of thyroxine, sodium acetate and both together inhibited food intake significantly. Thiouracil showed no significant effect on feed intake but it relieved part of the depression caused by acetate. Pulse rate showed significant differences between treatments but rectal temperature and respiration rate did not change significantly. The results are discussed in the text.

SUMMARYRelative adaptability of Chokla and Rambouillet × Chokla half-breds was compared by observing their responses on exposure to summer stress for 6 days and also under accentuated stress by deprivation of drinking water till the animals lost 30% of their body weight. Responses of both the breed groups were similar on 6 days exposure. Accentuated summer stress resulted in decreased feed intake followed by 15, 26 and 31% loss in body weight on 1st, 2nd and 3rd day of exposure, respectively. Progressive decline in faecal moisture, increase in rectal temperature and decrease in morning respiration rate were also noted in both the breeds while an increase in pulse rate was recorded only in the cross-breds. Increase in respiratory or pulse rate for unit rise in rectal temperature was found to be higher in the cross-breds. On accentuated thermal stress, haematocrit values were higher in the cross-breds and blood potassium concentration was higher in the Chokla while blood glucose decreased in both the groups. Under the conditions of short-term exposure to summer stress the cross-breds maintained homoeothermy as well as the Chokla.

This study aimed to examine the relationship of feeding time on physiological response and the effect on the behavior of Javanese thin-tailed sheep. The total population of the study was 12 sheep. The treatment in this study is feeding time in the morning (W1) and evening (W2). Parameters that had been observed were heart rate, respiration rate, rectal temperature. This research design used was a completely randomized design. Feeding at different times did not affect daily body weight gain. However, feeding at different times affects the physiological response of thin tail sheep. W1 has a higher heart rate value at daytime of 80.65 ± 3.49 but has a lower value in the afternoon at 75.26 ± 4.20. Respiration rates W1 in the morning and evening were 32.06 ± 2.69 and 51.88 ± 3.43. Rectal temperature W1 lower in the morning at 37.76 ± 0.05. Physiological response of thin tail sheep which were fed with different feeding times indicated that the heart rate, respiration rate, and rectal temperature were still in normal condition.

The aim of this research was to evaluate the effect of feeding frequency and level of Tenebrio molitor’s waste concentrate (TMC) on the physiological response of local sheep. A total 18 rams aged Io (8 months) with an average body weight of 14.72±2.44 kg (CV 16.91%) were used in this research. The reserch using 3x2 factorial randomized block design. Firts treatment was feeding frequency (2, 3 and 4 times/day) and second treatment was level of TMC ration (70% and 35% of TMC). The variables observed were physiological responses (pulse rate, rectal temperature, and respiration rate). The data were analyzed by ANOVA. The results showed that there was interaction effect between feeding frequency and TMC level on pulse rate and rectal temperature of sheep. The level of 35% TMC was significantly higher (P<0.05) on respiration rate than 70% TMC when the sheep feed in the morning. The research concluded that frequency of feeding and the level TMC had a significant effect on physiological responses in local rams.

This study was conducted in Rasuwa district, Nepal from 2008 to 2009 in Chauries (3 to 16 years) to analyze the transhumance effect in husbandry practices and physiological vitals. Physiological vitals were evaluated by 2×4 Factorial CRD with two levels of altitude (high- 3300 m and low- 1655 m) and four levels of age group (G1- ≤6 yrs, G2- 7 to 9 yrs, G3- 10 to 13 yrs and G4- >13 yrs); information regarding husbandry practices were collected from herders (n=60) using semi-structured questionnaire. Physiological vitals were taken from two altitudes, then analyzed for two- way ANOVA by Mstat- C and survey data by SPSS 16.0. Husbandry practices were found to be almost similar round the year except the matter of herbage supplementation during winter and early parturition. Rectal temperature, respiration rate, pulse rate and DSI showed significant increase (P<0.01) when animals were at low altitude pasture. Therefore, findings of this study revealed that transhumance system of Chauri management is herders' rational farming approach to make use of available pastures at different altitudes and have a distinct impact on rearing system and animals' physiology.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/on.v9i1.5747
