Effect Of Using Of Some Meals On Performance Of Awassi Lambs


Abstract in English

The experiment extended for 70 days, experimental units were rested, then left for an adaptation period of 10 days, during the adaptation period, the animals were housed in one pen, in the end of the adaptation period, the lambs were individually weighed, then divided according to live weight into three equal groups of an average (22-25)kg each. The concentrates was the same for all groups in protein and energy intake, but the difference was only in percentage of SBM21%, SFM 20%, and CSM15%.
