Organic vs Conventional Suckling Lamb Production: Product Quality and Consumer Acceptance

open access: yes, 2008
Samples of suckling lambs (n=40) of two breeds reared under conventional and organic conditions were analysed to asses physico-chemical characteristics, including instrumental texture, and nutritional quality in terms of fatty acid composition.

Forage feeding in intensive lamb production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Successful feeding strategies of periparturient ewes and growing lambs are essential in intensive indoor lamb production. This thesis evaluated the effects of chopping grass silage and of mixing silage with concentrate on feed intake, dietary selection ...

Production and Composition of Ewe’s Milk. Effects of Protected Fat Supplementation

open access: yesRevue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 2005
A database on the effects of protected fat supplementation [calcium soap of fatty acids (CSFA)] was developed to analyze these effects on milk production and composition in dairy ewes.

Documentation of fatty acid profiles in lamb meat and lamb-based infant foods

open access: yes, 2011
Lamb meat, when used in the weaning diet of children, is presumed to have a lower allergenicity than other forms of red meat. In children with atopic dermatitis and multiple food hypersensitivities, consumption of lamb meat has also resulted in ...

Lamb rearing options for New Zealand sheep dairy systems

open access: yes, 2020
Sheep dairying is an emerging industry in New Zealand and is undergoing rapid growth. Dairy ewes produce around 25% of their total milk yield in the first 30 days of lactation, corresponding to the time when lambs would naturally be suckling.

Allosuckling in domestic hair sheep: a rare behavior associated with multiple births and male lambs

open access: yesFrontiers in Ethology
Allonursing or allosuckling is a rare but an intriguing evolutionary behavior reported in several species including mammals. Despite the energy cost of lactation, females occasionally allow alien offspring to suckle, suggesting potential adaptative ...

Longitudinal studies of intramammary infection in suckler ewes [PDF]

open access: yes
Four longitudinal studies were conducted. The first study investigated the longitudinal pattern of udder half somatic cell count (HSCC) and intramammary infection (IMI) in 48 UK suckler ewes over the first 10 weeks of lactation.

Glucose, protein and energy metabolism in suckling and ruminating lambs

open access: yes, 1984
Ruminant lambs were compared with suckling lambs, pair-fed to equal digestible energy intakes. Studies were made of glucose entry rate, by continuous infusion of D-[U-¹⁴C] glucose, protein synthesis, by continuous infusion of L-[side chain-2, 3-³H ...

The forage type (grazing versus hay pasture) fed to ewes and the lamb sex affect fatty acid profile and lipogenic gene expression in the longissimus muscle of suckling lambs1

open access: yes, 2012
Meat intramuscular fat (IMF) contributes to meat quality and consumer acceptance. Molecular events that occur during IMF deposition and the identification of genes that are differentially expressed during this process are important to the design of an ...
