Effects of Feeding Total Mixed Pellet Feed to Mutton Sheep on Their Feeding Behavior

Abstract:

In this experiment, we conducted a feeding experiment on sheep with complete mixed pellet feeds of corn straw and alfalfa hay with different ratios of roughage resources, and different concentratetorough ratios, and observed and recorded the feeding behavior of the sheep. Finally, it was concluded that by feeding fully mixed pellet feed, the feed intake time was shortened by about 30 to 40 minutes, the feed intake speed was increased, and the feed intake was increased. The higher the proportion of roughage, the longer the mutton sheep drink water. The higher the proportion of concentrated feed, the more frequent bowel movements of mutton sheep. The sementograin ratio had no significant effect on the exercise and rest time of mutton sheep. This study concluded that the A3B2 group had the best feeding effect by observing various indicators.
