Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine physical and chemical properties of meat quality of Zagorje turkeys raised in semi-intensive fattening system. The study was conducted on 40 birds, 10 of which belonging to white breed (5 males and 5 females), 10 to grey breed (5 males and 5 females), 10 to black breed (5 males and 5 females) and 10 to bronze breed (5 males and 5 females). The breed itself produced no significant effect (P>0.05) on physical and chemical parameters of meat quality, unlike sex, which produced a significant effect (P<0.05).
