Three Weeks Before and After Lambing Key Period
Lincoln report from Morris Hemstrom of the University of Nebraska Extension says the six week span around lambing is critical for ewe and lamb. An adequate balanced ration with leafy alfalfa hay, half a pound daily grain, salt and mineral mix, and water supports increased needs. if alfalfa is unavailable, add protein fortified vitamin A supplement for every four to five ewes. If ewes are fat, delay grain until after lambing. post lambing corn or milo helps milk flow. Adequate exercise reduces lambing difficulties.
