Ewes raise lambs in winter to promote survival
The ewes replenishing the lambs mainly rely on the growth of breast milk within 8 weeks after the birth, so the ewes should be supplemented. Supplementary feeding time is mainly in late pregnancy and lactation, about four months or so. Supplementary feeding should choose good quality hay and fine material, daily supplement can feed hay 1.5 kg (as well as wild or wild hay), silage 1.5 kg, fine material 0.45 kg. Within three days of lambing, if the ewes are of good quality, they may not feed the concentrate at the moment and only feed high quality hay to prevent indigestion or mastitis. Lambs take care to eat colostrum 1~3 days after birth. For weak and poor mothers, it is necessary to artificially assist the nursing. The method is to hold the ewes and push the lambs to the breasts of the ewes. Within 7 days after giving birth, don't bring the ewes and lambs to windy places outside the house. After 7 days, the ewes can properly go outside to eat grass. Lambs should be trained to graze when they are 15 to 20 days old. At the half moon age, 50 ~ 75 g/day supplements are given; 1 ~ 2 months old supplementation is 100 g/day; 2 ~ 3 months are supplemented with 200 g/day; 3 ~ 4 months are supplemented with 250 g/day. . The composition of the mixture is preferably beans, bean cakes, corn, and the like. It is better not to use cottonseed cake. Dry grasses such as alfalfa, peanut pods, and willow leaves are all good. The hay should be chopped. Feed the concentrate first, then feed the coarse material, but also feed the green feed properly, and ensure enough drinking water. Lambs are usually weaned at 4 months of age, and weaning methods are used once more. Disease prevention and prevention Lambs are susceptible to dysentery after being born for one week. Lamb dysentery is an acute intestinal infectious disease with severe diarrhea and neurological symptoms. The mortality rate is high and comprehensive control measures should be taken. For ewes, we must strengthen feeding and management. Do a good job of summer and autumn harvesting and winter and early spring maintenance work to ensure that the lambs produced are robust, have sufficient milk, and enhance the resistance of the lambs. The sheep house should be kept warm in winter and spring, and the temperature in the house should not be too low; and keep the sheep house dry. The ewes should cut off the dirty hair around their breasts before breast-feeding, and squeeze a few drops of colostrum to lick the milk. After the lamb is born, it must be promptly picked up to breast milk in order to enhance its immunity. The oxytetracycline should be fed within 12 hours of the birth of the lamb. Each dose of 0.15 to 0.2 grams of oxytetracycline once a day for 3 days can prevent disease. Lambs should be observed in time so that they can be discovered and dealt with promptly. For the sick lamb, in addition to the veterinarian to timely diagnosis and treatment, you can also use the first 20 to 25 grams of garlic, peeled and washed and smashed, water irrigation, 2 times a day, and even irrigation for 3 days; or 15 grams of dried poplar flowers, fried Juice 15 ml (one oral dose), 1 to 2 times daily. 5 Ply Face Mask,KN95 Approved Mask,Partical Filtering Half Face Mask,5Ply KN95 Protective Face Masks Zhejiang Minan Medical Supplies Co.,Ltd , https://www.minanmask.com
