Abstract
This study was carried out to investigate some reproductive and lamb growth performance of Ramlic sheep in 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 years. The effect of year was found significant on fecundity and litter size of the ewes. The average fecundity, litter size and lamb survival rate of Ramlic ewes were 0.79, 1.13 and, 94.9%, respectively. The birth weight (BW), weaning weight (WW) and six month live weight (SMLW) for male and female lambs were 4.63 kg and 4.20 kg, 30.92 and 26.94 kg, 37.40 and 33.21 kg, respectively. The effect of age of dam, year, birth type and sex were significant on BW, WW and ADWG of lambs. The average daily weight gain of lambs at weaning was 286.88 g and male and female lambs were 303.62 g and 270.13 g, respectively.
