The article presents the results of pasturingand the morphological composition of the carcasses of the Kazakh coarse fat tail lambs breed. The object of the study was three groups of experimental sheeps of the aforementioned breed, where the diet of the 1st experimental group included compound feed in the form of feeding, in the second experimental group wasgrain waste in the form of feeding, and the control group in feeding was kept onlypasturing. The liveweight of experimental rams at the beginning of feeding wason theaverage 29.0 - 29.5 kg, and at the end of feeding it was on the average of 39.8-38.7 kg. At the same time, the absolute increase during the feeding period was 9.21 and 10.7 kg, and the average daily increase was in the range of 178.3 and 153.5 grams. The lambs who received top dressing by carcass weight, both with fat tail and without fat tail, were superior to peers who did not receive top dressing, by 5.3 - 6.9% and 5.6 - 7.1%, respectively
