Mixing or alternating dietary crude protein sources and performance of wether lambs

Effects of mixing or daily alternation of dietary cottonseed (CS), corn gluten (CG) and soybean (SB) meals on wether performance were determined. Feed intake tended to be lowest for CG fed continuously. Daily gain (g) was 260, 342 and 327 for CG, CS and SB, 335, 329 and 317 for CG-CS, CG-SB and CS-S...

Zusammenfassung:Effects of mixing or daily alternation of dietary cottonseed (CS), corn gluten (CG) and soybean (SB) meals on wether performance were determined. Feed intake tended to be lowest for CG fed continuously. Daily gain (g) was 260, 342 and 327 for CG, CS and SB, 335, 329 and 317 for CG-CS, CG-SB and CS-SB mixes, and 269, 312 and 342 for CG then CS, CG then SB and CS then SB on alternate days, respectively. Feed:gain ratios did not differ among treatments. Key words: Sheep, performance, protein sources, feeding method
