Duodenal morphology in calves fed liquid diets
with different frequency

At the age of 7 days twenty-four bull-calves were divided into 4 groups that received whole milk or milk replacer one or three times per day. Their duodenal morphology on day 36 of life and rearing performance from days 7 to 36 of life were assessed. Feeding frequency affected villus height and daily weight gains (P≤0.05). The duodenum weight, villus height, submucosa thickness, daily weight gains, liquid feed and nutrient utilization per kg of weight gain were inﬂuenced by type of liquid feed (P≤0.05).
