Abstract
Based on the corporal measures made after birth, 3 months, 6 months, 1, 2 and 3 years, we observed the main grow values evolution in young horses, males from Shagya race in the conditions offered by Radauti troop.
In this work we analysed 3 dimensions that are more important: waist, thoracic perimeter and tibia perimeter.
Regarding waist, the grow speed was of 12,1% in birth-3 months interval, 20,1% in 3 to 6 months interval, 6,4% between 6 months and 1 year, 3,1% in the 1-2 years interval and 1,2% in the 2-3 years interval. The grow intensity had the next values: 18,4% for 3 to 6 months, 6,2% for the 6 months - 1 year interval, 3% in the 1-2 years and 1,2% in 2 to 3 years.
Concerning thoracic perimeter, the relative grow speed was: 9,4% in birth - 3 months interval, 18,3% in 3 to 6 months, 18,8% in 6 months - 1 year, 7,7% in the 1-2 years and 4,8% in the 2-3 years. The grow intensity had the next values: 9% in the birth - 3 months interval, 16,8% in 3-6 months, 17,2% in 6 months - 1 year, 7,4% in 1-2 years, 4,7% in 2-3 years.
The tibia perimeter had a relative grow speed of: 7,9% in birth - 3 months interval, 15,4% in 3-6 months, 17,6% in 6 moths - 1 year, 5,4% in 1-2 years and 2,3% in 2-3 years. The grow intensity had the next values: 7,6% in birth - 3 months interval, 14,3% in 3 to 6 months, 16,2% in 6 months to 1 year, 5,2% in 1-2 years and 2,2% in the 2 to 3 years interval.
In conclusion, Radauti troop offers good conditions for the growing of Shagya race.
