Lingual abscesses in suckling and weaned lambs
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1984Lingual abscesses were found in lambs from 2 midwestern flocks. Lesions resulted in reluctance to feed, emaciation, and death. Plant material was demonstrated at the center of abscesses in 1 flock. Veterinarians should examine tongues carefully when investigating lamb mortalities.

Effects of Bovine Growth Hormone in Suckling Lambs
Experimental and Clinical Endocrinology & Diabetes, 2009The objective of this study was to determine the effects of bovine growth hormone (bGH) on body growth of suckling lambs. Suckling Merino lambs (fed on milk replacer from 4th day of life) were daily injected from 10th to 38th day of life with 80 micrograms bGH/kg b.w. Only insignificant increase of body weight was observed after 4 weeks of GH treatment.

To butt or not to butt: Suckling tactics in lambs
Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 1987It is generally assumed that milk ejection has to be actively elicited and that actions such as udder massage and butting achieve this. However, although the broad outlines of suckling in sheep and its development with time have been described (Ewbank, 1967), no attempt has been made to develop a quantitative description of the individual acts and ...

FOOD INTAKE CONTROL IN SUCKLING LAMBS
Canadian Journal of Animal Science, 1984The increased fat content of milk diet diminished food intake in suckling lambs. A singificant inhibitory effect on food intake was also observed after the administration of glucose and lactose per os. It is supposed that food intake is regulated through peripheral lipostatic and glucostatic mechanisms.

Breed effect on carcase and meat quality of suckling lambs
Meat Science, 1997The influence of breed on carcase and meat quality traits was studied in 48 suckling lambs (approximately 1 month old) from the Churra, Castellana and Manchega Spanish breeds and Awassi crosses. Carcase quality traits were determined by visual assessment and objective measurements. Meat quality was assessed by instrumental and sensory analysis.

Illthrift in suckling lambs attributed to lung pyogranuloma formation
Veterinary Record, 2009A WIDE range of factors may cause or contribute to illthrift in suckling lambs ([Radostits and others 2000][1]). Chronic respiratory infections are recognised as a very important cause of retarded growth in lambs, one of them being lung abscessation, in which illthrift is attributed to toxaemia ([

Suckling behaviour and the transfer of immunoglobulins in neonatal lambs
Proceedings of the British Society of Animal Production (1972), 1992The passive transfer of immunoglobulins from colostrum is essential to protect neonatal lambs against infection until their own immune defense systems are fully developed. Adequate intakes of immunoglobulins must be achieved within the first 24h after birth because thereafter “gut closure” precludes any further antibody uptake. The degree of protection

Ewe colostrum and subsequent lamb suckling behaviour
Australian Journal of Experimental Agriculture, 1996Behavioural and colostral data were obtained from 70 parous Border Leicester x Merino ewes (and their lambs) that lambed in 0.25 ha paddocks. Data collected included a colostral sample immediately postpartum, lamb weight and temperature, site of parturition and lamb sucking attempts to 48 h post-partum.
