Size of Lipoproteins in Intestinal Lymph of Sheep and Suckling Lambs [PDF]
The relative importance of chylomicrons (Sf> 400) and very low density lipoproteins (Sf 20-400) in transporting lipids in lymph was investigated in surgically prepared adult sheep and pre-ruminant lambs fed low fat diets or infused intraduodenally with corn oil.

A comparative study of fatty acid profiles of fat in commercial Spanish suckling kids and lambs
Fatty acid profiles are a major contributor to meat quality in small ruminants. Nevertheless, while fatty acid profiles from suckling lambs have been extensively studied they are virtually unknown in suckling kids.
