Lamb is one of the benefits of raising sheep how to improve the survival rate of lamb

Lamb

First, do a good job of lactation:

After the lamb is born, first let it eat enough colostrum within 1 hour of birth to promote meconium excretion and improve immunity; secondly, for ewes with breast dysplasia or parturition, breast warm compress and massage can be used to promote breast development and facilitate breast milk secretion; third, ewes with postpartum illness and weakness should be treated as soon as possible to promote their health as soon as possible. Fourth, for the ewes with a large number of lambs, weak and sick, after lambing, the lambs are fed by ewes who are close to the day of lambing, or artificial breast-feeding is used to ensure the healthy growth of the lambs.

(2) artificial feeding of suckling lambs:

Lambs can be artificially breastfed with goat's milk, skimmed milk powder or substitute milk. Artificial feeding should be regular, quantitative, fixed temperature, fixed quality, regular disinfection.

Third, grasp the replenishment materials to promote the growth of lambs:

From the age of 2 weeks, lambs should be properly fed with high-quality green fodder or green hay and fine fodder. Concentrate formula: corn 40%, bean cake 24%, high quality grass powder 25%, wheat bran 8%, calcium hydrogen phosphate 1%, salt 1%, trace element additive 1%. The amount of concentrate feed should be determined according to the lamb's age and body condition, about 15 days old, 50g / day, 100g / day, 200g / day, 100g / day, 100

Fourth, prevention of diseases:

Lambs have weak resistance, fear of cold and humidity, and are easy to be infected with parasitic diseases in vivo and in vitro, so it is necessary to establish a complete scientific epidemic prevention system. The 15-20-day-old lambs were subcutaneously injected with sheep fast plague, enterotoxemia, gangrene triple vaccine or clostridium fusiforme multi-dry powder sterilized vaccine, about 30 days old subcutaneously injected with foot-and-mouth disease vaccine, about 40 days old subcutaneously injected with sheep pox chicken embryo attenuated vaccine, about 50 days old intramuscular injection of goat infectious pleuropneumonia live aluminum hydroxide vaccine, about 60 days old oral mucosa injection of oral ulcer attenuated cell lyophilized vaccine. At the age of about 70 days, the aluminum hydroxide vaccine of Streptococcus aureus was subcutaneously injected into the back, the live vaccine of infectious pustular dermatitis was injected into the labial mucosa of about 80 days, and the anthrax vaccine Ⅱ # was injected intradermally at the age of 90 days. After weaning at the age of 2 months, albendazole with broad spectrum, high efficiency and low toxicity can be used for the first time according to 8 mg / kg body weight of sheep. Since then, the worm has been dewormed once a quarter. It should be noted that vaccination, deworming, castration and grouping all stimulate lambs. In order to avoid lamb stress, lambs should be vaccinated, dewormed, castrated and grouped as far as possible at intervals of 7-10 days.

Fifth, timely weaning to prevent weaning stress

Generally speaking, normal lambs are weaned at the age of 2 ~ 2.5 months. At this time, the gastrointestinal digestive function of the lamb has been fully developed, weaning the lamb, as long as careful care, strengthen supplementary feeding, will not affect the growth of the lamb because of weaning. Use one more weaning method to separate the ewe from the lamb and move the ewe to a distance, no longer gregarious, and no cry can be heard. Lambs are still kept in the original house to prevent weaning stress. After weaning, lambs often have diarrhea and slow growth, mainly due to gastrointestinal discomfort caused by changes in dietary structure. Probiotic preparations can be added to the diet to improve gastrointestinal function and prevent diarrhea and slow growth.
