As Salam semua penternak.
Post hari ni nak menjawab soalan dari Tuan El Cabras Hambriento dari blog House of Goats Soalan nya
"Hamba gerun tengok baka shami. One bcs of its sheer size. Tak susah ke nak manage, buat treatment and so on? Two bcs I have bad experience with non local breeds"
Para penternak sekalian. Sukacita saya sertakan video shami jantan di LRGF.
Lepas tu mari kita membaca pula post mengenai 'teori' kambing telinga panjang di sini
So kalau kita buat kesimpulan, ada juga kebenaran mengenai kambing shami ni. They are a playful and friendly lot. Walaupun begitu, bila playful tuh kadang kadang menanduk jugak. So memang shami jantan di LRGF ni tak takut atau defensive dengan kehadiran orang. Tak tahu pulak orang lain yang bela shami macamane. Please share, especially yang induk. Regardless of their sheer size, from my experience and observation, our shami bucks are gentle and 'harmless'. Ini adalah fakta di LRGF, bukan mewakili kandang kandang yang lain atau secara umumnya.
Adakah 'trait' ni ada pada anak anak mereka? Dari 15 ekor jantan di LRGF, hanya satu sahaja yang playful, iaitu Remy. Boleh tengok dia kat sini. Yang betina pulak, bila kita masuk petak kandang dia je, mula lintang pukang lari.
To anwer Tuan ECH in regards to managing these shami goats, setakat ni we have nothing to complain about, YET. Firstly sebab we only have 3 shami bucks. Memang takde masalah sesangat. Secondly, because we are practicing intensive system breeding, maka gejala dan masalah berpenyakit amat kurang (controlled environment). I cannot even recall we have to administer any treatment to them. Do we need to put a lot of attention to them? Nope. 3 jantan dan 94 betina, they should be very grateful and happy. Intake makanan pun sama. Petak kandang pun luas dan tidak padat. Takde nak bagi special feed. We have also received a few twins too from their mating with the boer does. No kipas or aircond walaupun bulu tebal dan banyak (risau jugak pasal heat stress).
Data ini adalah berdasarkan pada 'present time'. So apabila betina kacuk ni dah besar, saya updatekan pula their performance and managment pulak.
Now for my question pulak to Tuan ECH. What was your unfortunate experience with non local breeds? Kindly enlighten us brother if you don't mind. I'm sure our fellow breeders especially the new ones can have an insight and learn from this.

ReplyDeleteThanks for this specific entry to answer my not so specific question. From the video we can all safely say that these shami goats are very docile, to say the least.
Jealous pun ada jugak because my sire, bucks and does..jangan haraplah nak jadi playful mcm tu..jinak-jinak merpati gitu.
I have to prepare an entry soon. Will let u know the so called bad experience that I had with the non local breed.
