Winter pregnant ewes late management points

The weather is abnormal this year, with continuous rains, continuous snowfall, and a cold climate. In addition, the temperature difference between day and night is large, the grass is brown, and the nutritional value is low. At the present stage, most of the ewes are about to enter the late pregnancy (prenatal ewes for two months) ). During this period, the fetus's bones, muscles, skin, and viscera organs grow quickly, the required nutrient requirements are high, and feeding and management are very important. The level of rearing and management is directly related to the ewes’ physique, the lamb’s birth weight, and the ewes. The adequacy of milk supply will have a greater impact on the future growth and development of the lamb, which is directly related to the economic benefits of the sheep industry. For this reason, the rearing and management of pregnant ewes at the current stage is very important and should be highly valued.

First, do a good job of feeding and management

1. The management of the ewes in the later stages of pregnancy should be extra careful and careful, to avoid scaring and kicking, to prevent the sheep from colliding with other sheep, to fight or go in and out of the cage, and not to keep the breeding density too high. Keep grazing or exercise properly every day. Do not hurry to rush while grazing, slow down and roam, do not take steep slopes, and do not cross the trenches. Do not go far too far every day, absolutely prohibit the use of cold whip, prohibition of catching up. It is advisable to implement public and ewe sheep breeding and animal husbandry in order to prevent rams from matching. Strengthen the feeding and management of the sheep to enhance the ewes' physique, cold resistance and disease resistance, ensure the health of the ewe, and ensure the healthy growth and development of the fetus.

2. Do not feed mildew, high acidity, cold, toxic fodder and drink cold or unclean drinking water.

3. The sheep house should be kept dry and sanitary, pay attention to warmth and ventilation, prevent the intrusion of thieves' wind, regularly remove the excrement, and regularly disinfect the fields and utensils, and it is best to cross-sterilize two or more kinds of disinfectants. Sinks and troughs should be cleaned regularly to keep the house clean and hygienic. Pay attention to ventilation to prevent excessive concentrations of harmful gases such as carbon dioxide and ammonia.

4. Adjust the structure of the diet to ensure the nutritional needs of the normal growth and development of pregnant ewes and fetuses. Attention should be paid to the content of vitamins, minerals, and trace elements in the concentrate feed, and make up the salt or set the salt bricks to allow the sheep to feed freely. It is best to add green and white succulent feed such as white radish, carrots, and sweet potatoes. About a month before the ewes are born, appropriate control of the feed amount of the concentrate, as much as possible to feed some soft texture of the feed, increase the amount of bran feed in the concentrate to facilitate the intestinal convenience. About 10 days before the expected date of ewes, the grazing gravid sheep should not go out of grazing or do not go too far. According to the ewes' digestion and appetite, they should appropriately reduce the amount of concentrate feed.

5. If ewes are found to have signs of childbirth, immediately transfer them to the delivery room. The ewes that have entered the farrowing pen must be meticulously cared for and observed carefully. Prepare disinfectant, iodine and other continuum supplies, ready to produce, if the weather is cold, it is best to prepare a few simple incubators to ensure the required temperature of the newborn lamb, improve the survival rate of the lamb.

Second, do a good job of preventing and controlling diseases

1. According to the epidemic situation of the local epidemic, we should formulate relatively sound and reasonable epidemic prevention procedures and plan for epidemic prevention. It is best to do a sheep epidemic prevention with triple triple vaccines in the late pregnancy of ewes so that the newborn lambs can obtain better results. High maternal antibodies reduce the occurrence of lamb dysentery and sheep enterotoxemia. It should be noted that the vaccines to be used by regular manufacturers must be injected strictly in accordance with the instructions for the use of pharmaceuticals. It is also important to note that those vaccines cannot be performed by pregnant sheep. At the same time, they must also pay attention to the shelf life and transportation requirements of the drugs. In addition, it is necessary to point out that What's more, when catching sheep, it is necessary to take light care, and to prevent acts such as driving and scaring so as not to cause miscarriage.

2. Observe the diet and mental status of the pregnant sheep, and treat the disease promptly after finding the disease. When treating pregnant sheep disease, do not use large doses of laxatives, uterine constrictors, and potent drugs to avoid pregnancy abortion.
