Utilização de seis fontes alimentares para cabritos em crescimento: 1. Avaliação de alopecia e diarréia

Este experimento foi realizado para avaliar o efeito de diferentes fontes alimentares sobre o aparecimento de diarréia e de alopecia em cabritos em crescimento. Foi usado delineamento inteiramente casualizado com seis dietas (1 - leite, 2 - leite + zeranol, 3 - colostro, 4 - colostro + óleo, 5 - colostro + zeranol e 6 - colostro + óleo + zeranol) e cinco repetições. Escores fecais foram medidos diariamente. Os maiores escores fecais foram observados nas dietas 4 (1,655) e 6 (1,786). A maior incidência de diarréia foi observada nas dietas 4 e 6. As dietas 3, 4 e 6 aumentaram a presença de alopecia. A alopecia foi reversível e persistente para os diferentes períodos de duração do experimento. Os compostos fenólicos e os ácidos graxos foram responsáveis pela diarréia e alopecia.This experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of different feed sources that can cause diarrhea and of alopecia in growing kids. A completely randomized design with six diets (1 - milk, 2 - milk + zeranol, 3 - colostrum, 4 - colostrum + soybean oil, 5 - colostrum + zeranol and 6 - colostrum + soybean oil + zeranol) and five replicates was used. Fecal scores were daily measured. The highest fecal scores were observed on diets 4 (1.655) and 6 (1.786). The highest incidence diarrhea was observed on diets 4 and 6. The diets 3, 4 and 6 increased the alopecia incidence. The alopecia was reversible and persistant for different experimental periods. The phenolic compounds and fatty acids were responsible for diarrhea and alopecia
