Nursing ewes feeding concentrates matters needing attention

There are two main reasons why breast-feeding ewes cannot feed concentrates:

One is shortly after the ewe's delivery, especially in the 2-3 days after delivery, the spleen and stomach are weak, and the digestive function declines. Concentrated feed is different from forage grass. For sheep, it is a feed that is difficult to digest. Once fed, especially for thin individuals, it is prone to indigestion if it has not been fed for a long time. It may even cause digestive diseases.

Second, if the ewes' prenatal sensation is already very good, and there have been phenomena such as sub-abdominal edema or severe swelling of the breasts, feeding more concentrate will not only raise the cost of feeding, but also exacerbate the abdominal edema or swelling of the breast due to excess nutrients. Symptoms can even lead to breast disease. In order to promote the physical recovery of the ewes, and at the same time facilitate the secretion of their milk, at this time, they should be fed with more green, succulent, easily digestible and pourable feeds, such as fresh grasses, bran or carrots and other root tubers.
