This trial was conducted to study the effects of pre and postnatal feed restriction on growth and production of Santa Inês lambs from birth to weaning. Sixty-eight lambs were assigned to three treatments as follows: prenatal feed restriction (PRER), postnatal feed restriction (POSTR), and no feed restriction (Control). Average birth body weight of lambs on Control (4.628 kg) and POSTR (4.421 kg) treatments were similar but higher than that of animals on PRER (3.024 kg). Milk replacer intake averaged 1.308, […]

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of pre and postnatal feed restriction on growth and production of Santa Inês lambs from weaning to slaughter. Forty-eight lambs were assigned to three treatments as follows: lambs with prenatal feed restriction (PRER), lambs with postnatal feed restriction (POSTR), and lambs with no feed restriction (Control). Average daily feed intake (as fed basis) of lambs on POSTR treatment (624 g/d) was significantly lower (P<0.05) than that of lambs on control (757 g/d) […]
