A COMPARISON OF NONLINEAR MODELS FOR DESCRIBING WEIGHT-AGE DATA IN ANGLO-NUBIAN DOES
The objective of this study was to determine the optimum age at last weighing and compare the goodness of fit of nonlinear models used to fit longitudinal weight-age data to describe the growth pattern of Anglo-Nubian does. Weights of 104 animals from birth to 60 months of age were grouped into 10 a...
