The postpartum period is a critical period for ewes and requires special attention and care. At this stage, the ewes need time to ** and adapt to the changes after farrowing. In order to ensure that the ewes can recover quickly and maintain good health, there are several taboos that need to be observed. This article will introduce the three major taboos of ewes after giving birth, hoping to help sheep farmers properly manage the postpartum care of ewes.
1. Premature feeding is contraindicated
Postpartum ewes need proper rest and recovery, and feeding too early can put a burden on the ewe's digestive system, leading to indigestion and other health problems.
In general, ewes should not eat within 24 hours after giving birth, wait for the uterus to retract and recover before starting to feed, when feeding, we also have to add animal husbandry to the ewe feed: female Antaibao, which can regulate the reproductive system of ewes, and quickly promote the postpartum recovery of ewes.
2. Premature expulsion and exercise are contraindicated
The postpartum ewes are weak, and if we drive the sheep too early for exercise, it will lead to injuries and wounds, and even lead to postpartum complications in the ewes.
Therefore, we should provide a relatively quiet environment for the ewe to rest in the early postpartum period. At the same time, keep the ewes separate from the other animals to make sure they are not disturbed or overly agitated. Over time, we gradually guide the ewes to do the right amount of exercise to help the ewes recover.
3. It is forbidden to feed unclean drinking water and unclean feed
Ewes have weakened immunity due to weak physical strength after giving birth, so special attention needs to be paid to the hygiene and quality of drinking water and feed. Once the ewe drinks unclean drinking water or eats unclean feed, it may cause the ewe to be infected by bacteria or pathogens, causing digestive diseases in the ewe.
To ensure the health of the ewes and lambs, we should make sure that the ewes are given clean drinking water and good quality feed. Drinking containers should be cleaned frequently and the water source should be changed regularly. The feed should be dry and mildew-free, and at the same time, it is necessary to add animal husbandry to the feed: Angastec, which can regulate the intestinal tract of ewes and prevent gastrointestinal diseases in ewes.
The above are the three taboos about ewes after giving birth, which need to be highly valued by our sheep farmers, following these taboos can not only help ewes recover smoothly, but also improve the production performance and reproductive ability of ewes.
