Body length was analyzed with a GLS model that accounted for variance heterogeneity found by Species, Altitude and Sex (Fligner-Killeen tests, P < 0.05).
(2004) study comprised of body weight, total body length, the length of head and body, tail length, the length of protruding rim of external ear, hind feet length, the length of middle claws of fore feet and hind feet, the number of rows of scales round mid-body and the number of single flanking scales of tail edge.
Furthermore, our results show that it is worthwhile to measure not only the body length for ageing purposes but also additional body parts, as not all of them have the same growth pattern.
(2010) evaluated the productive performance of the five breeds of sheep prevailing in different parts of the Baluchistan province, observed to be significantly different among breeds (P>0.05) for withers height, body length and chest girth.
Morphometric traits: Regarding different Morphometric measurements FR5 proved to be the best with significantly higher body length, drumstick length, keel length, shank length, drumstick circumference, shank circumference and wing spread.
