This study reports, for the first time, the morphometric characteristics of different types of hair follicles in white-coated Orenburg down goats imported into the country, with emphasis on sex-related differences. The research was conducted on physiologically healthy one-year-old goats. Morphometric analysis was performed using biopsy samples collected from various anatomical regions of the body. The findings provide valuable scientific and practical insights into the influence of sex on hair follicle density in down goats bred under local conditions.
