الوصف: The objective of this research was to assess the growth and health of Holstein and Jersey calves under an intensive feeding protocol (INT) and a traditional feeding protocol (TRA) under tropical conditions. Calves were divided into blocks based on their breed and gender (n=31). Each animal was in the feeding trial for 7 weeks. Both groups of calves were offered were fed pasteurized waste milk at 0600 and 1700 h daily for seven weeks. The TRA group was offered 3.78 L of milk per day for seven weeks. The amount of milk offered to the INT group was 3.78, 4.74, 5.68, 6.62 and 7.56 L/d from week one to week five, respectively. Afterwards the milk offered to the INT group was reduced to 5.68 and 3.32 L in weeks six and seven, respectively. Both groups were fed the same amount of calf starter (18% crude protein and 2.5% fat). The amount of calf starter offered daily was progressively increased from 0.23 to 0.91 kg from week 1 through 7. Morphometric measures (hip height, cross height, hip width and body length), weight, and health assessment were taken weekly. The data was analyzed with a Prox GLIMMIX with SAS. The feeding protocols did not influenced any of the evaluated parameters for Holstein (P=0.6803), Jersey (P=0.6803), male (P=0.9642) or female (P=0.9642) calves. In the weight parameter, at week 7, the female Holstein calves weighed 55.83 ± 5.00 and 54.19 ± 3.23 kg for the INT and TRA group respectively (P = 1.00). Similarly, both protocols had no effect on the health status of Holstein (P=0.3061), Jersey (P=0.3061), male (P=0.7914) or female (P=0.7914) calves. In conclusion, the INT feeding protocol failed to enhance body growth and did not affect the health status in dairy calves raised under tropical conditions. ; El objetivo de esta investigación fue evaluar el crecimiento y la salud de las becerras y becerros de las razas Holstein y Jersey bajo un protocolo de alimentación intensiva (INT) y un protocolo de alimentación tradicional (TRA) bajo condiciones tropicales.
