This study aimed to reveal the milk composition traits of Hamdani crossbred sheep raised under extensive con0ditions. A total of 96 sheep milk samples were collected during early lactation stage. Mean values for milk fat (%), solid non-fat (SNF) (%), protein (%), lactose (%), salt (%) and pH, conductivity (mS cm-1), freezing point (⸰C) and density (kg m-3) in Hamdani crossbreed sheep were determined as 7.49±0.15, 8.69±0.08, 4.13±0.04, 3.89±0.04, 0.62±0.01, 6.93±0.04, 4.05±0.07, -0.5±0.01, 1.027.84±0.38 respectively. It was determined that the milk fat percentage in Hamdani crossbred sheep was higher than other native sheep breeds of Turkey. Negative and significant correlation was detected between milk fat and protein (r=-0.368. p |
