Crossbred Ewes of Finnsheep, Dorset and Rambouillet Breeding When Mated to Purebred or Crossbred Rams
Reproductive performance and body weights of four and five-year old crossbred ewes representing five combinations of Finnsheep (F), Dorset (D) and Rambouillet (R) breeding were evaluated when lambing in the summer Oune-July, 1976). The five breed combinations represented were 1f2D, 1f2R; %D, %R; %F, 1f2D, %R; %F, %D, 1f2Rand %F, 3f4R. Breeding effectiveness of purebred and crossbred rams of Ham...
متن کاملA comparison of Dorset and Finnish Landrace crossbred ewes.
Data from 644 exposures and 552 lambings were used to analyze reproductive traits of 1/2-Finnish Landrace, 1/2-Dorset ewes (1/2 Finn); 1/4-Finnish Landrace, 3/4-Dorset ewes, (1/4 Finn) and Dorset ewes. Ewes were exposed to Hampshire or Suffolk rams for spring lambing from 1973 to 1978. The analytical model included fixed effects of ewe birth year (EBY), ewe breed (BR), lambing year within EBY a...
متن کاملGenetic, environmental and interaction effects on lifetime production efficiency of crossbred ewes.
A total of 399 crossbred ewes born in 2 yr were maintained either on irrigated or dryland hill pastures. The ewes were sired by North Country Cheviot, Dorset, Finnsheep or Romney rams mated to Suffolk or Columbia-type ewes. The crossbred ewes were mated to Hampshire rams throughout the study and had the opportunity for either 4 or 5 yr of production. Annual feed cost was calculated based upon e...
متن کاملStudy of Reproductive Performance of Crossbred Ewes Treated with GnRH and PMSG during Breeding Season
Reproductive performance was evaluated in non-lactating crossbred ewes to which were administered the exogenous GnRH and PMSG. The ewes were randomly allocated in three treatment groups (n=40).After accurate detection of estrus and 2 hours prior to mating, 2.5 mL of distilled water and 2.5 mL of GnRH were injected intramuscular to each ewe of the first (control) and second group, respectively. ...
متن کاملProductivity of purebred and crossbred finnsheep. I. Reproductive traits of ewes and lamb survival.
Female reproductive trait were studied in four pure breeds (the Finnsheep, Suffolk, Targhee and Minnesota 100), the F1 crosses between Finnsheep rams and females of the other three breeds and F2 and backcross ewes. Precocity of sexual development, defined as the percentage of ewe lambs lambing at 12 months of age, was measured in 709 ewe lambs in 4 years. Lambing and weaning rates were measured...
