However, <strong>it is essential that ewes are given the food they need for up to 4 weeks following lambing because this is when their milk production is at its highest. <\/strong>Ewes rearing twin lambs will need supplementation where grass height is less than 4 cm. The quantity and calibre of grass available will determine the level of supplementing. If feeding is necessary, troughs should be shifted often to prevent lambs from gathering in muddy and wet areas. Below are five suggestions for ensuring the best nourishment for sheep after lambing and methods to promote a ewe\u2019s ability to raise their lambs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Offer nutrient-dense forage.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">For ewes to recuperate from lambing, a lot of high-quality feed is required. It&#8217;s critical to give animals access to recent, high-quality fodder, such as hay, silage, or pasture. Make sure the forage is clean and mould-free because rotting hay or silage might have negative effects on one&#8217;s health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>Add more energy.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">Ewes who are lactating need more energy to provide milk for their lambs. Offer them a premium concentration feed to make sure they have adequate energy. At least 16% protein and 3.5% fat should be present in the concentrate. Ideally, Ewes rearing twins in good body condition on quality (70DMD) silage will require 1.2kg of 18% crude protein ration. This should be fed for up to four weeks. As the ewe has reached peaked lactation at this stage ration quantity can be reduced gradually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"3\">\n<li><strong>Ensure access to water.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">Ewes that are rearing lambs need water to survive. Ensure they always have access to fresh, clean water. A sheep that is lactating has to consume at least twice as much water as a ewe that is not lactating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"4\">\n<li><strong>Track your body&#8217;s condition score.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">Following lambing, it&#8217;s critical to keep an eye on a ewe&#8217;s body condition score (BCS). The ideal BCS for a lactating ewe is 3-3.5. A ewe&#8217;s milk production and general health may suffer if her BCS is less than 2.5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"5\">\n<li><strong>Think about dietary supplements.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">A ewe may benefit from nutritional supplements if she is having trouble keeping weight on or is displaying symptoms of poor health after lambing. Consult your veterinarian for advice on the finest vitamins to give your ewes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">It is essential for the health of the ewe and her offspring to ensure appropriate ewe nutrition after lambing. You may aid your ewes in recovering quickly by giving them high-quality food, extra energy, lots of water, checking body condition score, and taking nutritional supplements into consideration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>So how can Flockwatch help you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">During lambing season, <strong>Flockwatch can be particularly useful<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/applink2.hwbe.io\/?_branch_match_id=1065989500966074415&amp;utm_medium=marketing&amp;_branch_referrer=H4sIAAAAAAAAA8soKSkottLXz0gtSilPLEnOyEvXSywo0MvJzMvWL%2FXKCi3NLjTJrEgCANgTfQgoAAAA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><strong> in helping farmers track and manage the health and productivity of their flock.<\/strong> Here are a few ways in which Flockwatch can help farmers during and after lambing season.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:13px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/2865975.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net\/hubfs\/2865975\/image-png-May-25-2023-10-12-53-1703-AM.png\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:255px;height:auto\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">1.
