Before raising sheep, we should first check whether the local environment is suitable and whether the forage is sufficient. These are the main factors related to the success of raising sheep. The growing environment of sheep includes altitude and temperature, low altitude goats are introduced to high altitude, then it is easy to cause respiratory diseases; if goats in hot areas are introduced to cold areas, lambs are easy to freeze to death. Therefore, all these should be carefully considered before introduction. In addition, raising sheep needs sufficient forage, and if the problem of forage supply is solved, then raising sheep will be half successful.

2. Introduction of breeder sheep

If it is meat goats, then rams and ewes can introduce different breeds, because hybrid goats have the advantages of fast growth, good meat production performance and high slaughtering rate, while as breeds, rams and ewes must be the same to ensure pure quality. Before the introduction, there is also the occurrence of surprise diseases, the caused breeder sheep to carry out antibody detection, output and introduction are low need to be immunized against common diseases in advance.

3. Matters needing attention in transportation

Those that are unqualified should be put forward in time, and only after they are qualified can they be transported. Only a small amount of hay and water should be fed 2 hours before transportation to avoid gastrointestinal loss of sheep during transportation, and the transport vehicles should be thoroughly disinfected. It is necessary to be clear about the epidemics in the areas through which diseases must occur and must be prepared in advance so as not to catch the disease.

4. Isolated observation

After reaching the destination, ah, change the body condition of the sheep as soon as possible, enhance the resistance to various diseases, reduce the incidence of diseases, and reduce mortality. After arriving at the farm, a small amount of hay and salt water were fed on the same day, excessive feeding was carried out in the export trough the next day, intensive feeding was added three days later, and then gradually replaced by the introduction of low forage, which generally required a transition week. Breeder sheep need to be isolated and observed, and only when there are no diseases and abnormal conditions can they be raised in groups after one month.
