Abstract
This study investigated changes in ruminating behavior and ruminal particulate of feed among goats in a hot environment H; 35 C RH 80 and in a thermoneutral environment N; 20 C RH 80 within the accompanied by the same restricted diet as provided in the hot environment. The following results were obtained: time spent eating in the H treatment was the highest followed in order by N treatment. Ruminating time was lower in H treatment than in N treatment. When ruminating and reposing the amplitude values of the rumen contraction were lower in the H treatment than in the N treatment. The results of changes with time after feeding in OM NOF and CP content in each ruminal particulate fraction were obtained: NDF content in each fraction was decreased after feeding in the H treatment but in the N treatment was increased opposite. CP content was lower as time passes of after feeding in the H treatment than in the N treatment.
