Handling rat pups after early weaning
Behavioral Biology, 1975To determine if handling infant rats acts directly to change development or whether the effect is an indirect one through the mother, pups were weaned at 14 days and the dam removed; half the litters were handled on the next 8 days. Handling produced long-term changes in weight and behavior.

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 2007
Early weaning is a management practice that reduces grazing pressure on pastures by decreasing the nutrient requirements of cows. Calves that are weaned early are relatively efficient at converting feed to gain, and can weigh as much, or more than, calves allowed to remain with their dams until a conventional weaning age is reached. Balanced diets with

American Association of Bovine Practitioners Conference Proceedings, 2003
Recent results from our research have shown that early-weaned, first-calf heifers require approximately 50% less energy to achieve and maintain moderate body condition compared to lactating heifers of the same age. Early weaning also has positive implications on the value of the calves post-weaning.

Effect of early weaning on behavior of weaned lambs
2021This study was carried out to determine the effects of different weaning age on the behavioral characteristics of Tahirova sheep lambs at weaning. A total of 60 twin lambs, 30 females and 30 males, were used in the study. The lambs were randomly divided into 3 groups of 20 each.

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1964
1. The literature on the early weaning of lambs has been reviewed.2. Four experiments were carried out at the Grassland Research Institute, Hurley, during 1959, 1960 and 1961 on the early weaning of Suffolk x Half-Bred lambs. The technique used involved weaning one of a pair of twin lambs at ages varying from 15 to 28 days.3.

Transport of early weaned piglets
Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 2008Abstract Millions of segregated early weaned (SEW) piglets are transported each year. Problems affecting even a small percentage of these piglets may have a significant welfare impact. The Recommended Codes of Practice for the Care and Handling of Farm Animals [CARC, 2001.

Sympathoadrenal Neurochemistry and Early Weaning of Swine
American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1976SUMMARY Three litters of pigs were weaned at 21 days of age, and 3 others were left with the sow. Pigs were killed at 21, 23, 28, or 39 days of age. Weaned pigs exhibited anxiety, gastrointestinal dysfunction, and decreased rate of body weight gain. Plasma glucose or liver glycogen concentrations were not decreased by weaning. Adrenal gland weights and

EARLY WEANING AMONG JAPANESE WOMEN IN HAWAII
Journal of Biosocial Science, 2003This study examined factors associated with early weaning among Japanese women in comparison with Caucasian women in Hawaii. A mailed survey was sent to all women who delivered an infant in Hawaii between January 1st 1989 and March 31st 1989. Only Japanese (N=228) and Caucasian women (N=439) were included in this study.

Segregated Early Weaning and Welfare of Piglets
Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science, 1999Segregated early weaning (SEW), introduced with the objectives of eradicating or controlling diseases and improving performance, is becoming increasingly popular among producers. The main features of SEW are weaning piglets early and moving the newly weaned piglets to a site isolated from the sows and other animals. In this article, we describe the key
