dc.descriptionThe study was conducted on the vesicular glands of 30 entire pure male Gaddi goats from birth to 5yrs and 6 months of age, divided into three equal size groups of 10 animals in each viz; Pre-pubertal (lday old to &lt;18 months of age), Pubertal (18 months to < 5years of age) and Post-pubertal (>5 years) age groups. In new born kid the glands were small, white cord like. It became "?" shaped at 6 months and "S" shaped at 12 months of age. A significant growth in size and weight of gland occurred at 6 month, then up to 12 month and beyond it grew slowly. The secretory acini of the lobules were lined by pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium which contained A-tall columnar, B-basal and C-narrow columnar type of cells. The number per unit area and size of the gland increased with age significantly from birth in the prepubertal animals and up to puberty. In post-pubertal animals it did not grow significantly, rather the connective tissue elements were increased in the capsule (adventitia). The intralobular connective tissue however, decreased at the expense of growth of acini at all ages.
