On each site, two lambs and two companion ewes were placed on each plot, giving a total of four plots and 16 animals.
The data obtained for each ewe during the periparturient period were re-arranged from calendar date to day relative to parturition (day 0).
Studies on the worm populations in the alimentary tract of breeding ewes.
Can the reflectance spectrum be used to trace grass feeding in ewe milk?
In order to test this hypothesis, growth curves were fitted for ewe lambs on different growth trajectories from two experiments.
This is also true in sheep, as a well-nourished ewe will produce two or three lambs, whereas one which is underfed produces only one lamb.
The 60 ewes were allocated to the 6 experimental groups as follows.
The 6 ewes within each of these classes were randomly allocated to 1 of the 6 experimental groups (n l 10).
