The purpose of the present study was to know whether dry and humid feeds of the same composition with different size of particles had the same palatability for dairy goats. So, the palatability of 2 feeds, barley and beet pulp, was tested at 10, 40 and 70 per cent humidity and with fine, average and coarse particles. Goats refuse feeds with very fine size of particles totally or partially. With fine particles, goats preferred beet pulp with high humidity but with coarse particles, goats had no preference for coarse or fine particles. Close results were observed on barley. An interaction appeared between the effects of particle size and humidity on feed palatability.
