Managing Breeding Ewes in I 
Winter Quarters 
Mark J. Smith 
S HEEP are naturally inclined to con¬ 
stipation when confined in the winter 
and fed on dry hay and grain. Every 
spring just prior to lambing time we hear 
of large, productive, apparently healthy 
ewes that are afflicted with an obscure 
malady—their nervous systems seem 
affected—the ewes get down and fre¬ 
quently die. Autopsy very often reveals 
the presence of one or more nicely 
developed unborn lambs. 
When in Kentucky I spent consider- 
erable time at Walnut Hall Farm which 
had one of the largest lambing barns in 
the United States and employed seven 
English shepherds. I might say right 
here that no one understands the nature 
and requirements of a sheep better*than 
the Englishman. It was at Walnut Hall 
that I ran across my first information 
as to the cause of this trouble affecting 
fat breeding ewes in the spring of the 
year. Over-confinement, lack of exercise 
and lack of feeds of a succulent nature 
are apparently the main contributing 
causes. Since this trouble is usually with 
good ewes heavy with lamb, the explana¬ 
tion has been advanced that the unborn 
lambs in some way exert a pressure that 
affects the nervous system in such a way 
as to cause the sheep to lose its equili¬ 
brium to a certain extent. 
Root Crops Valuable Tonic 
My valued friend, Harley Sherman of 
Allegany County, N. Y., who has been 
raising sheep, on the same farm, for well 
over half a century, tells me that he 
raises five hundred bushels of turnips a 
year and that it is not a costly process. 
Mr. Sherman feeds them once a day dur¬ 
ing the winter in combination with all 
kinds of roughage which he raises on his 
two farms. At times in the fall he turns 
his sheep into his turnip field and lets 
them eat the leaves off. Sheep will gnaw 
at turnips well along in the winter, get¬ 
ting all that is near enough the surface of 
the ground. Root crops have played an 
important part in the development of the 
English breeds of sheep which includes 
all of the Down breeds. Some one has 
said that root crops contain something 
that is beneficial to sheep that the chem¬ 
ists have never found. The same might 
be said of wheat bran. 
Corn Silage Good 
While good sheep and root crops have 
always gone together—there is another 
source of succulence, that no doubt is 
better adapted for general use in this 
country with the majority of our farm 
flocks, namely com silage. Corn silage 
to be best for sheep should be made of 
mature corn, not sour, or moldy. A safe 
limit as to the amount that can be fed 
to pregnant ewes is two pounds a head per 
day but much greater amounts have been 
fed with good results. Silage, in sheep 
feeding, should always be considered as 
a supplementary feed, to be used in con¬ 
junction with other feeds. It being car¬ 
bonaceous it does not contain the protein 
necessary for the proper development of 
the unborn lamb. Leguminous hays, 
oats and wheat bran are the types of feed 
that are required to balance up the silage. 
Soft flabby lambs will result if some of the 
other feeds are not included. More silage 
can be fed with satisfactory results after 
lambing than before. Silage is a valuable 
supplementary feed and an economical 
source of the much-needed succulence. 
Water and Exercise Important 
Sheep were not intended to be closely 
confined—exercise is second in impor¬ 
tance only to feed. Contrary to occa¬ 
sional belief, sheep appreciate plenty of 
pure water—when in winter quarters they 
drink large amounts. I was employed at 
one time to weigh the water consumed by 
an experimental bunch of sheep in Illinois. 
It was surprising how much they drank 
when water and receptacles were kept 
clean. As the ewes approach lambing time 
their demands for water increases.
