Huangluoqi is specially designed for sheep. It contains balanced and rich trace elements. The cobalt element in this product is very important for the sheep's body to produce vitamin B12. Selenium, zinc, magnesium, iron, cobalt, iodine, manganese, The interaction of sodium and other elements has a very important role in the health, weight, reproduction rate and survival rate of sheep, promoting rumination and metabolism, and improving the appetite of sheep, symptoms such as poor growth, low milk production and weight loss.

In winter, the cold wind is raging, the climate is bad, and there is a lack of green fodder. At this time, the epidemic disease is easy to spread. Most ewes coincide with the pregnancy period, and the nutritional demand is very large. The breeding sheep also enter the first overwintering period, facing severe tests. It is very important to carefully raise and manage sheep in winter. If there is a slight negligence, it may lead to fat loss, miscarriage, and even a large number of deaths. Therefore, do well5Large management and protection measures(Keep warm, keep the crowd, keep fat, keep fetus, health care)will bewinter flockThe key work of feeding management.

 

 

1, warm

 

The cold tolerance of sheep is relatively strong, but the winter sheep house can not be lower0℃, the lamb house can not be lower8℃, the delivery room is maintained10~18C is appropriate. Before the winter, the sheep house should be overhauled as soon as possible, and the roof and walls should be repaired as necessary to prevent wind and snow leakage. For sheep pens located in the wild, corn stalks should be used to bury wind barriers outside the north wall. For closed sheep pens, wind shields should be hung on the doorway and windows. Simple sheep raising shed can extend the eaves forward, set up plastic greenhouses and cover the top with straw curtains.Too cold season, should be in the pen stove heating.

Winter grazing can make the sheep eat suitable forage and breathe fresh air, which is conducive to strengthening the physique and exercising the ability of cold resistance and disease resistance, which is the main measure to protect the herd. Grazing should choose low sunken land on sunny slopes with better wind and water sources. In early winter, some pasture and wild vegetables have not yet died. At this time, we should seize the time to graze and seize the favorable time when it is warmer at noon on sunny days to let the sheep eat as much grass and wild vegetables as possible. In the deep winter, the flock is converted to house feeding. For weak sheep, special management measures should be implemented, such as feeding juicy feed, increasing the amount of concentrate feeding, and strengthening physical exercise.

 

 

3,Tire protection

Male and ewe should be kept separately to prevent rams from chasing and climbing across pregnant ewe. Pregnant ewes should have separate pens, the gate of the pens should be as wide as possible, and the number of breeding in the houses should be appropriate to ensure that the floor area of each pregnant sheep reaches2~2.5Square meters, to prevent pregnant sheep from being accidentally squeezed; To supply pregnant sheep with refined materials and light salt water, warm water must be used to avoid drinking ice water and eating frost grass to ensure reasonable feeding and drinking. To strengthen daily management, prevent sheep from fighting, fighting, collision and other behaviors; Don't go too far on the grazing road, don't walk steep slopes and dangerous roads, avoid man-made chasing, and prevent pregnant sheep from startling, jumping and falling.

 

4, keep fat

Supply sheep with high-quality green hay and crop straw, and timely supplement soybean meal, corn, dried melon, wheat bran and other refined materials to ensure that each sheep can eat it every day.200~250grams of refined material, reserved for breeding of young rams and young ewes, each sheep should be supplemented every day500~600grams of concentrate. Regular daily supply2~3Second drinking water, it is best to drink light salt water, the water temperature reaches18C or so. In the deep winter season, even if the weather is very cold, the sheep should be allowed to go out for exercise at noon on sunny days to strengthen their physique and improve their cold resistance. Ewes fat is very important, early pregnancy, diet can be50%of alfalfa,30%the green hay,15%of silage corn,5%of the concentrate composition; in late pregnancy, the diet composition was1~1.5kilograms of green hay,1.5kg of silage,0.45kg of fine material.

 

5, Health Care

In winter, sheep are susceptible to foot-and-mouth disease, streptococcal disease, pox disease, dysentery, colds, colibacillosis and other diseases. In late autumn and early winter, sheep should be vaccinated in time. After an autumn grazing, sheep may be infected with tapeworms, schistosomiasis hepatica and other parasitic diseases, showing obvious symptoms in winter. Therefore, preventive deworming should be carried out on sheep in time before winter. Commonly used drugs mainly include Zhongyi Microenzyme, ivermectin, etc. At ordinary times, the enclosure should be cleaned frequently, the enclosure should be kept clean and dry, excrement should be removed in time, harmless treatment should be carried out through accumulation and fermentation, and the residual materials should be screened and treated, and the contaminated materials can no longer be used. Pay attention to often brush the sheep body surface and hair, in order to promote blood circulation, improve the body health.
