Abstract :

The purpose of this study was to analyze the morphometric characteristics of Pote goats in Soket Laok Village, Madura Island. The material used was 200 Pote goats with an age range from over 1 year (PI0>6) to more than 3.5 years (PI8). The sample included 90 goats aged over 1 year (PI0>6), 36 goats aged between 1 and 1.5 years (PI2), 54 goats aged between 1.5 and 2.5 years (PI4), 16 goats aged between 2.5 and 3.5 years (PI6), and 4 goats aged over 3.5 years (PI8). The method used is a survey method which includes conducting surveys and interviews. Data were obtained using a purposive sampling technique. The results showed that morphometric measurements on the head and body of Pote goats had the highest average at PI 8, which means that along with the increasing age of Pote goats, it will affect the body size of goats. The results of the dominant phenotypic characteristics of Pote goats are the shape of a pitcher udder, the shape of long drooping ears, the shape of flat horns, rectangular pupils, convex facial profiles, there is rewos hair both in males and females and there is no beard, and phenotypic Pote goats with different ages do not have significant differences.
