Conclusion

From these preliminary results, the Creole goat could be defined as a lean meat animal with satisfactory carcass traits and yield. Further research is required to improve the feeding management and to test the effect of parasitism on performances and meat quality. It will be interesting to enlarge the data base with more M kids (the F kids must be kept for reproduction) and more heavy animals.
