Abstract

The milk productivity of Queens of the Lincoln Kuban gene pool herd for the fi rst 20 days of lactation is 28-46 kg or 1.4-2.3 kg per day. With age, the milk production of Queens increases by 17.6-25.4%, in Queens with double off spring, the milk production is higher than with a single one, by 13.7%.The correlation between the milk content of Queens of the Kuban type of the Lincoln breed and the live weight of the off spring in the fi rst 20 days of life is positive and reliable – r = +0.93 ± 0.15, r = 0.866 ± 0.125, can serve as a criterion for selecting Queens by milk content for breeding purposes.
