The musculoskeletal system (see Introduction to the Biology of the Musculoskeletal System) includes the bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and joints, which support and move the body.
Lambing. Ewes generally lamb around 145 days after mating. Some of course will be earlier & some later, but 145 days is the norm. For a successful lambing, ewes need to receive good nutrition, particularly in the last month of pregnancy when the lamb will approximately double in size.
Weaning practices should start at least two weeks prior to the actual weaning process. By weaning, I am talking about separating the ewes from their lambs. Lambs should be started on some sort of solid feed at least two weeks before weaning so that they are adapted to living on their own.In addition, lambs should also be accustomed to drinking water. Solid feed often comes in the form of a high protein grain mix, but could also mean highly palatable and high protein hay.his greatly decreases the stress of weaning for both the ewes and lambs, but can also mean lower weight gains in lambs. When weaning, producers should prepare the ewes several days prior to the planned weaning date.
