Pedigree and performance data of Kajli sheep collected during 1994 to 2010 at the Livestock Experimental Stations in Khushab and Khizarabad,Punjab were analyzed to determine the effect of genetic factors on various performance traits of Kajli sheep.The heritability estimates of birth weight,weaning weight,yearling weight,preweaning weight and greasy fleece weight in Kajli sheep were 0.05 ± 0.019,0.069 ± 0.016,0.015± 0.020,0.056 ± 0.016 and 0.17 ± 0.06,respectively.
