Feeding and lactation

The lactation period of lactation is about 4 months, divided into pre-lactation and post-lactation periods. The pre-lactation period is 2 months after the birth of the lamb. At this time, the nutrition of the lamb is mainly dependent on breast milk. For every kilogram added to the lamb, it takes about 5 kilograms of breast milk. In order to meet the needs of the fast-growing lambs, ewes must be particularly raised to increase milk production. As much as possible to provide quality forage, silage or micro-storage, juicy feed, fine material than the slightly increased during the late pregnancy, drinking water should be sufficient.

Ewe’s lactation peaked at 40 days postpartum and began to decline at 60 days. This lactation pattern is consistent with the gastrointestinal function development of the lamb. After 60 days, with the decrease of lactation, the ruminal microflora of lambs gradually formed. The ability to use feeds has increased, and the transition from a breast-fed stage to a feed-based stage has led to the late lactation of ewe.

In the later period of lactation, lambs have been able to feed on feed and have reduced dependence on breast milk. Feeding should be based on fodder, silage, or micro-storage. Feeding of concentrates can be reduced.
