    Effect of parity and type of lambing on performance and udder traits of Bandirma ewes
    (INDIAN COUNC AGRICULTURAL RES, 2016) Sezenler, Tamer; Ceyhan, Ayhan; Yuksel, Mehmet Akif; Onaldi, Abdullah Taner; Yildirir, Mesut
    The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of parity and lambing type on body condition score (BCS), live weight of ewes (LWE), daily milk yield (DMY), lambs growth performance and udder measurement of ewes during first 3 months of lactation in Bandirma ewes. Bandirma ewes (78) with healthy udders and their lambs (117 heads) were used. BCS of ewes was affected significantly by lambing types at first and third months of lactation, while lambing types were not significant in second month of lactation. Parity of ewes did not significantly affected BCS except third month of lactation which was significantly affected by parity. Effects of lambing types and parity of ewes were significant on BCS at first and third month of lactation. Live weight change of ewes was affected significantly by parity, while lambing types were not significant at first 3 months of lactation. There was a significant effect of parity on average daily milk yield at early lactation stage. Also lambing type had significant effect on DMY at first 2 months of lactation. DMY at third month of lactation were not affected by lambing types. Parity affected lambs growth performance in the first three months of lactation. No significant differences between lambing type and parity of ewes in udder measurement, except udder circumference (UC) measure which was significantly affected by parity and lambing types. The effects of parity of ewes were significant on udder circumference and udder width while the other udder traits were not significant. The effects of birth type of ewes were significant on udder width while the other udder traits were not significant. The positive and significant correlations were observed between udder circumference and udder width and daily milk yield in Bandirma sheep. Significant positive phenotypic correlations were determined between lambs live weight (LLW) and LWE, BCS and DMY, LLW and LWE, DMY and LWE. The results suggested that early stage of lactation of ewe's can be feed supplemented with high energy or high protein for increasing milk production. The control of these physiological stages of ewe may be improved BSC and DMY, also growth performance of lambs. Hence, we recommend that early stage of lactation performance and udder measurements of ewes are to be taken into consideration for selection programme of Bandirma sheep.

    Influence of Year, Parity and Birth Type on Milk Yield and Milk Components of Bandirma Sheep (German Black Head Mutton x Kivircik)
    (ANKARA UNIV, FAC AGR, 2016) Sezenler, Tamer; Ceyhan, Ayhan; Yuksel, Mehmet Akif; Koncagul, Seyrani; Soysal, Deniz; Yildirir, Mesut
    This study was conducted to investigate the effects of year, parity and birth type (BT) on lactation milk yield (LMY), adjusted lactation milk yield based on 150 days lactation length (LMY150), lactation length (LL), average daily milk yield (ADMY) and milk components (MC) of Bandirma sheep. The study was carried out with 54 ewes in 2011 and 70 ewes in 2012 under semi-intensive conditions. LMY, LMY150, LL and ADMY of Bandirma sheep were determined as 70.31 kg, 73.29 kg, 142.02 days and 488.19 g, respectively. The effect of the year on LL was significant (P<0.01), but the effects of parity and BT were not significant. The effects of the year and parity were significant (P<0.01 and P<0.05, respectively) on LMY, LMY150 and ADMY, but the effect of BT was not significant. Fat, protein, lactose, total dry matter (DM) and non-fat dry matter (NFDM) were determined as 5.26%, 6.11%, 3.29%, 15.49% and 10.23%, respectively. Highly significant positive correlations were determined between fat content and DM (r=0.998; P<0.01) and between fat content and NFDM (r=0.949; P<0.01), whereas fat content was negatively correlated with ADMY (r=-0.992; P<0.01) and lactose content (r=-0.957; P<0.01). Significant negative correlations (P<0.01) were found between lactose content and other milk components except for protein content and ADMY. The results indicated that despite being a mutton type crossbred, lactation characteristics and MC of Bandirma sheep are also considerable.
