The study group consisted of male and female kids of the Refined White Breed. The animals were divided into three groups: a - consisted of male kids slaughtered at the age of 90 days, b - included male kids slaughtered at the age of 160 days, c - covered female kids slaughtered at the age of 180 days. The content of fatty acids in the intramuscular fat of the animals was determined with use of the gas chromatography method. It was also presented on the Chrom-5 apparatus. The analysis of chemical composition and the fatty acids profile proved that the muscle tissue of the kids from the second group contained less fat and had a larger proportion of unsaturated fatty acids.
