How to raise lambs in their own house for about a month

It is best to work with the mother to maintain milk, temperature, water, and forage.

The lamb can be fed pure milk, but it must be properly diluted, otherwise he will not be able to digest it and will be prone to diarrhea. The bagged pure milk is originally sterilized, and the hand macro should not be cooked, and the nutrients are gone when cooked! Heat it up to 50 and then cool it to between 35 and 41 before feeding.

However, if the ewe has colostrum, it is still fed colostrum, otherwise the lamb's resistance is not good. When colostrum is insufficient, it is appropriate to supplement other milk (dilute it with a little water) or milk replacer powder, and feed it with colostrum into 1:1 reedpin.

If there is a cattle farm nearby, you can buy some colostrum, put it in the refrigerator, take a little feed each time, and remember to warm it before feeding.

Pure milk or some other milk once opened, even if it is put in the refrigerator, do not exceed 12 hours, it is best to drink it within four hours, the lamb is just born with a weak stomach, afraid of bacteria or something.

These are my personal experiences, and the lambs have survived like this. In fact, pick a better milk replacer, slowly cooperate with breastfeeding from the fourth day, and only feed milk replacer powder after 15 days of breastfeeding (about 5 days of transition), which is the best, and it is good for ewes and lambs. Of course, the opening material from the seventh day still has to be fed.

<>1. After the lamb is born, it takes more than 2 months to grow to 30 catties under the condition of good milk. Sheep have a very fast growth rate, generally speaking, the weight of lambs in 3-4 months can reach 48-52 pounds, the body development of sheep is relatively symmetrical, usually the weight of adult sheep is about 130 pounds. 2. Colostrum should be provided when lambs are fed, and the milk temperature should be controlled at 38 -42 when artificial breastfeeding.

Feeding should be rationed, usually one-fifth of a lamb's birth weight.

1. The lamb grows 30 pounds in a few months

1. The lamb grows 30 pounds in a few months.

Lambs weigh about five or six pounds at birth, and it takes more than two months to grow to 30 pounds when the milk is good. Sheep have a relatively fast growth rate, usually 3-4 months lamb weight can reach 48-52 pounds, the body development of sheep is symmetrical, adult sheep weight is usually about 130 pounds.

2. How do lambs grow fast.

1) Early weaning.

Usually 7 days old can use fragrant or sweet feed to lure lambs, complete the preparation of early weaning, and wait until 10 days old, you can supplement the artificial feed. Note that at this time, the rumen of the lamb is relatively weak, and some soft and easily digestible roughage should be ingested to gradually adapt. After 30 days of age, the lambs can be weaned when they reach 15 kg.

(2) Adopt captive sheep.

Captive sheep activity is relatively small, energy consumption is reduced, the original energy consumption is converted into the body needs of fat and body operation needs, the growth rate of lambs is improved, and feed costs are saved.

(3) Scientific ingredients.

Sheep are mainly herbivorous, the nutritional value of forage is very low, the energy contained in it is also very low, and a large amount of forage is needed when feeding, which is not conducive to the rapid growth of sheep. A good quality mixture should be added so that the sheep eat less and grow faster.

(4) With feed additives.

Feed additives are indispensable nutrients for sheep raising, which can promote the growth and development of sheep and improve the resistance of sheep. Sheep at different times need different formulas of feed additives, the use of additives can better promote the feed intake, digestion and feed conversion rate of meat sheep, and improve the growth rate of sheep.

2. How to feed the lambs

1. Colostrum. Colostrum contains some vitamins that lambs cannot synthesize on their own, as well as more trace elements, which can help lambs pass meconium. The immunoglobulins in colostrum can improve the immunity and resistance of lambs, and improve the constitution of lambs, so lambs must be allowed to eat colostrum after birth.

2. Temperature. The temperature of the lamb should be well controlled, and the milk temperature should be controlled at a temperature close to or slightly higher than the body temperature of the ewe, suitable for 38 -42.

3. Quantitative feeding.

When feeding lambs, you need to be rationed, and you can feed them until they are full each time, and you can't overfeed them. The amount of food to be fed is determined by the weight of the lamb, usually one-fifth of the birth weight, and it is important to note that the amount of food fed to the lamb when feeding porridge should be lower than the amount of milk.

Choose 3 months old, weigh 45 pounds of weaned lambs, and then raise 4 months out of slaughter, a fattening profit is 400 yuan.

The 3-month weaned lamb is now 11 yuan per catty, fattening for 120 days, an average of 2 catties of concentrate per day, an average of 2 catties of roughage (dry matter), and a total feed value of 3 yuan per day. During the fattening period, it can grow two per day, worth 8 yuan.

120 days per day + the original 45 pounds) x 10 yuan per catty - 500 sheep purchase - (120 days x 3 yuan per day feed money) = 430 yuan.

430 yuan, each sheep removes 30 yuan for labor, site, epidemic prevention, water and electricity bills. Profit of 400 yuan.

The data obtained from our farm experiments will not vary much across the country.
