Abstract
Skin samples were taken at birth and at weaning from two groups of Cheviot lambs whose mothers were on different planes of nutrition during pregnancy and .lactation. No significant difference was found in S/P ratio between the groups at either sampling time, showing that the diet of the mothers had not influenced the number of secondary follicles formed. However, S/P ratio at birth and S/P ratio at weaning were both correlated with body weight at birth. showing the importance of foetal environment for secondary follicle formation and final S/P ratio.
