Abstract :
The present research work was done in Nadia district of West Bengal during January, 2010 to December, 2013. Positive and significant correlation coefficients were observed between body weight and linear body measurements with the exception of a few cases in all the three colour varieties of Bengal goats. There was a high correlation between body weight and body length, height at withers and chest girth in all the three colour varieties of Bengal goats especially at the age group of 6, 9, and 12 months, indicating that body weight and these three traits tended to move together and measurements of any one of these three traits or in combinations may be used to estimate the body weight at a particular age. From the present study it can be concluded that body weight can be predicted using body measurements considering the correlation coefficients in three colour varieties of Bengal goats reared under village condition.
