N2  - Five live body measurements were taken on 142 Friesian crossbred and 49 buffalo male calves belonging to the rations and fattening unit, Faculty of Agriculture, Alexandria University to study the relationships between body weight and live body measurements and predict body weight All simple correlation coefficients between body weight and live body measurements of Friesian crossbred and buffalo male calves were positive. The highest estimates were between the heart girth (HG) and body weights in Friesian crossbred and buffalo male calves. HG was the best predictor of body weight of Friesian crossbred and buffalo male calves throughout the months of fattening period
