Do not give sheep cold water ice residue water matters needing attention in winter sheep drinking water
Due to the low temperature in winter and spring, if you give the sheep cold water, or even ice ballast water, the sheep do not want to drink, resulting in insufficient drinking water. This not only slows down the speed of sheep feed digestion, hinders metabolism in the body, decreases body fat, but also causes disease. Therefore, in production, it is necessary to create drinking conditions for sheep and provide clean and adequate drinking water.
Sheep drink water
Drinking water temperature: if the sheep drinking water temperature is too low, the water should absorb the heat converted by the sheep itself from the feed, which will reduce the feed utilization rate. Therefore, the best temperature of drinking water for winter and spring sheep is 20-30 ℃.
Form of drinking water: in order to promote sheep to drink more water and drink enough water, sheep can be given fine feed soup. The method is: rinse the concentrate feed with boiling water, stir it evenly, make it into a paste, then mix with a certain amount of water, stir evenly, and give it to the sheep to drink.
Quantity of drinking water: sheep feed on 1 kg of dry matter and need 3-5 kg of drinking water. Therefore, in winter and spring, depending on the situation of sheep eating forage, sheep should be given water of 3 to 5 times the quality of dry matter.
Drinking time: drink sheep on an empty stomach, if the water temperature is on the low side, it will make the sheep's body temperature drop suddenly, easy to make the sheep catch a cold, pregnant sheep drink cold water on an empty stomach is easy to have an abortion. The sheep should be given water after 1 hour of grass feeding, so that the water and forage can be fully mixed in the rumen of the sheep, which is helpful for digestion.
Drinking frequency: it is suitable for sheep to drink water twice in the morning and in the evening. If the conditions are not met, drink at least once, but drink enough.
