Özet
Purpose of this study was to determine the nutrient content of colostrum from Damascus and Kilis goats and changes over time. 10 Damascus and 10 Kilis goats from a private farm in Bismil, a town in Diyarbakir province constituted the animal material. The goats were placed on a special feeding program during the last 1.5 months of pregnancy. In this feeding program, 400 g/head vetch hay and 600 g/day concentrate feed were provided in the morning and evening as two meals. Colostrum samples were taken at 6-hour intervals starting from immediately after the birth to 72 hours. The collected samples were placed in tubes and transferred to a milk analyzer. At the end of the study, no significant differences were observed between Damascus and Kilis goats in terms of protein, fat, dry matter and lactose ratios in the colostrum. These components changed immediately from birth to end of the third day and the colostrum was largely converted into a normal milk. The kinship relationship between Kilis and Damascus females may be one of the reasons for the similarity in colostrum contents.
