Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the reproductive, growth traits, milk quantity, quality and somatic cell count (SCC) traits of Hair goat flocks, raised in supplementary feeding in different physiological stage in natural pasture-based system. Data were collected from 1982 Hair goats, which were mated with Hair, Alpine or Saanen bucks during 2009 and 2013. Except for kidding time (P 0.05). However, Alpine × Hair F1 (AHF1) kids exhibited superior birth weight than Hair kids, while Hair kids had significantly higher weaning weight than Saanen × Hair F1 (SHF1) kids (P
