description: Feeding hazelnut leaves (Corylus avellana) to first year grazing goats may reduce the egg output of gastrointestinal worms. Previous trials with complete hazelnut bushes support this assumption. Under controlled conditions, the feeding of hazelnut leaves of four weeks, showed no significant differences concerning body weight and fecal egg count between control, low dose and high dose groups, respectively. Anyhow, the great acceptance of hazelnut leaves shows, that browsing does increases animal welfare of goats.
