Changes in small intestinal mucosa morphology and cell renewal in suckling, prolonged-suckling, and weaned lambs

American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 1991
No information concerning the effect of weaning on intestinal cell proliferation is currently available in large species with early intestinal morphogenesis, a group including most domestic animals and humans. Changes in intestinal morphology and epithelial cell renewal were investigated in 1-, 5-, and 8-wk-old suckling and 8-wk-old weaned lambs after

Meat quality in suckling lambs: effect of pre-slaughter handling

Meat Science, 2005
Thirty-three suckling lambs of the Manchega breed were used to compare the effects of pre-slaughter handling (PSH) on initial meat quality and at 7 days post-mortem. Lambs were distributed into three groups: electrically stunned (ESL; n=15), stunned using CO(2) (GSL; n=10) and slaughtered without previous stunning (USL; n=8). Meat quality was evaluated

Observations on the suckling habits of twin lambs

Animal Behaviour, 1964
Abstract A dawn to dusk watch, repeated at weekly intervals for 10 weeks and followed by a further watch a fortnight later, was carried out on a flock of 30 ewes and their 15 single lambs and 15 pairs of twin lambs. A total of 2,106 observations were made on the frequency with which lambs suckled and on the sides of the ewes which twin lambs used ...

Observations on the suckling behaviour of young lambs

The British Journal of Animal Behaviour, 1956
Summary Under natural conditions, twin lamps up to 6 weeks old, suckled on average 22 times in 16 daylight hours. Single lambs suckled on average 14 times in 6 daylight hours. The duration of suckling periods became shorter and less frequent as the lambs grew older.

The effects of age of lamb and parity of dam and sex and birth type of lamb on suckling behaviours of Karayaka lambs

Small Ruminant Research, 2012
Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the effects of age of lamb, parity of dam, sex, and birth type of lamb on suckling behaviours and to find out at which week the lambs tend to be weaned considering suckling behaviours. This study was conducted on Karayaka sheep, an indigenous sheep breed, raised in Turkey.

The effect of lack of vision on suckling behaviour of lambs

Applied Animal Ethology, 1975
Abstract Lambs which had all previously suckled were taken from their mother between 2 h and 2 days after birth and deprived of food for a variable period. When one of a pair of twin lambs was blindfolded and put back either in or out of physical contact with its mother it did not suckle.

Relationship of milk production to number of lambs born or suckled

Australian Journal of Agricultural Research, 1959
Two independent sets of data, obtained by two different methods of measuring milk production, show that milk yield is greatly influenced by the number of lambs suckled but not by the number of lambs born.

Transfer of Radiocesium from Different Environmental Sources to Ewes and Suckling Lambs

Health Physics, 1989
Indoor experiments are described that compare the transfer of radiocesium to ewe and lamb tissues from different sources. Lactating ewes were fed either perennial ryegrass contaminated by Chernobyl fallout, or saltmarsh vegetation contaminated by marine discharges from the Sellafield reprocessing plant.

Nursing and suckling behaviour amongst clun forest ewes and lambs

Animal Behaviour, 1967
Abstract A sunrise to sunset watch, repeated at weekly intervals for 8 weeks, was carried out on a flock of nineteen ewes and their twelve single and seven pairs of twin lambs. Records were kept of the frequency of occurrence of all the sucklings and also of the sides of the ewe from which single and twin lambs suckled.
