How to raise sheep

when choosing the enclosure, farmers should try to choose a location that is dry, flat and sunny in the lee, and pay attention to not polluting the surrounding environment or being polluted by the surrounding environment. Each sheepfold should not be built too large, and the width (width) of the shed should be 3.5m, and the depth (width) should be about 2m. Its advantages are easy selection of materials and low cost. Each sheephouse is about 7 square meters, and 1 ~ 14 sheep can be raised. The number of sheephouses is determined according to the scale of raising sheep. The roof of a single row of sheep houses is of single slope type, the middle of a double row of sheep houses is an aisle, and the roof is of double slope type. The bottom plate of the pen house can be made of wooden boards, wooden fang and battens, and the thickness should reach 5cm to bear the load, and it must be straight, otherwise the gap will be uneven and the leg of lamb will be easily stuck. The gap between the bottom plate is 2cm, which can leak sheep manure without jamming the leg of sheep.

Second, choose varieties

You should choose a body shape and appearance that requires long legs, quick action, and liveliness. In order to improve the milk yield of ewes, hybrid improved varieties can be selected, because the improved varieties have the characteristics of large body, high milk yield, strong reproduction and stable heredity.

Third, daily feeding

In the daily feeding, nutrition should be strengthened, the nutritional concentration of the diet should be increased, and the resistance of sheep to high temperature environment should be further enhanced, regardless of the cold season in winter and spring or the hot season in summer and autumn. Feed must have a fixed pasture and raw material production area, and the production area must be a green crop production base. High-quality forage varieties suitable for cultivation are Bromus pentaphyllum and Pennisetum, and the intercropping is reasonable, which can supply green all year round. In the whole feeding process, the "green" feed that meets the requirements without pollution is used. The feed should be properly supplemented with salt, and .2 g can be added per kilogram of body weight to maintain the acid-base balance in the body. In the high temperature season, ensure enough cool drinking water, let the sheep drink freely, and inhibit the temperature rise of the sheep. In order to increase milk production, farmers need to increase feed intake for sheep. Increasing feed intake is the main way to ensure good fat condition of sheep, especially in hot summer and autumn, because the feed intake of sheep decreases, increasing feeding times becomes the main method to reduce and prevent heat stress. If the sheep's intake is blocked, no matter how high the nutritional concentration of the feed is, it can't guarantee the health of the sheep and the normal production. In addition, don't feed moldy and deteriorated forage.

For newborn lambs, the feed was balanced before, but the 8-to 12-day-old lambs were mainly forage and supplemented with a small amount of milk. 12-day-old weaned sheep are mainly raised with forage, supplemented with a small amount of concentrate.

Fourth, expelling worms and strengthening stomach

While feeding good feed, expelling worms and strengthening stomach are the key points. The parasites of Guanzhong dairy goats mainly include mites, tapeworms, gastrointestinal nematodes, Fasciola hepatica and so on. Generally, deworming should be done once every quarter, and it is best to use albendazole and ivermectin at the same time. Specific usage: oral administration of albendazole is 15mg/kg body weight, while intramuscular injection of .1% ivermectin injection is .2ml/kg body weight, so the combined medication has a good effect on the above parasites.
