In the first month or so of ewes' pregnancy, the fetus is still small. Although the nutrients required by ewes are not high, they must be relatively comprehensive. Under grazing and captive feeding conditions, ewes can usually eat young pastures. Satisfaction can meet its nutritional needs, but in the autumn, winter, and early spring, most farmers use insufficient raw materials such as hay and crop stalks to feed the ewes. They are unable to meet their nutritional needs and should be based on the ewes’ needs. The nutritional status is properly supplemented with concentrate. After 2 months of gestation, the ewes should gradually increase the amount of concentrate feed. Soybean 40%, corn 30%, barley 20%, wheat 10%, soaked in warm water for 6 to 8 hours, ground into pulp, and then added In the soybean and other feed total 10% to 15% bean cake, 5% to 8% bran, 1% salt, 3% to 5% bone meal, daily supplementation to the pregnant sheep 2 to 3 times, each time each sheep fed Mix 50 ~ 100 grams of concentrate, young ewes should also increase the amount of fine feed. After the ewes are pregnant for 3 months, the total volume of pregnant sheep fed with forage should be properly controlled. Feeding the forages and adding concentrates to the sheep should be done with less feeding to prevent one-time feeding of the forehead and excessive pressure on the fetus. Affect normal growth and development. After 4 months of gestation, the ewes will be fed with grazing resources. The amount of concentrate should be increased to about twice that of the pre-pregnancy period, and the forage and feeding concentrates should be fresh, diversified, and young. Tender pasture, carrots and other green and juicy feed can be fed. It is forbidden to feed potato, vinasse, and unreprocessed cottonseed cakes or rapeseed cakes, and must not be fed with mildew, cold, or overheating, be too acidic, or be mixed with ergots or poisonous weeds (such as flowers and stamens). Feed, etc., so as to avoid eczema abortion, dystocia and post-production diseases. About a month before the ewes are born, the amount of coarse feed should be appropriately controlled, and as far as possible, feed with a soft texture such as ammoniated, micro- or salinized straw, and a green and blue juicy feed. Add bran to the concentrate. The amount of feed is beneficial to intestines. About 10 days before the ewe's delivery, the amount of feed should be reduced according to the ewe's digestion and appetite. 2 to 3 days before delivery, the ewes are of good constitution, large breast swelling, and accompanied by abdominal edema. The amount of feed fed should be reduced by 1/3 to 1/2 from the original diet to prevent premature ejaculation. Or too thick milk causes eczema mastitis, back milk and lamb indigestion and diarrhea; for the thinner ewes, if the breasts dry up a week before birth, in addition to reducing the amount of crude feed, it should also be appropriate to increase sesame cake, bean cake Protein-rich prolactin feed, such as soy milk or bean dregs, and juicy, green, laxative feed, prevent the lack of milk in the ewes after birth. In addition, feed and drinking water for pregnant ewes should always be kept clean. Ningbo DOKEE Medical Technology Co., Ltd. , https://www.dokeemedical.com
