To ensure the well-being of sheep during the winter, ready-to-eat feed should be rich in protein. Suitable options include soybean stalks, cardamom rind, alfalfa, sweet potato leaves, silage, and ammoniated feed. These are excellent choices for winter feeding, and it's essential to harvest them in autumn. In addition, reserve corn and other concentrates as supplementary feed. Straw like soybean straw should be crushed before feeding to improve digestibility.
Sheep sheds need to be well-ventilated, dry, and clean. Before winter arrives, seal all air outlets to prevent leaks from the roof, ensure the ground remains dry, and avoid excessive ventilation on the walls. Each year, prior to winter, adjust the grazing groups based on the sheep’s health and body condition. Group sheep with similar conditions together to maximize pasture use. Weaker sheep should graze near the shelter, while stronger ones can move further away to protect the weaker ones. Sheep that are chronically ill, thin, old, or have low productivity should be culled or managed appropriately during the autumn season.
In late autumn and early winter, use trichlorfon or thiodichlorophenol to repel external parasites. After increasing supplementary feeding, the availability of withered forage is insufficient to meet the nutritional needs of the flock. Therefore, provide feed supplements every day, ideally between 4–7 a.m. and 3–5 p.m. Supplementary feeding should take place outside the shed. Each sheep should receive about 1,000 grams of corn silage, 100–250 grams of concentrate, 5–7 grams of bone meal, and 5–10 grams of salt daily. Provide two waterings per day. For pregnant ewes, double the amount of supplementary feed and try to increase the proportion of silage.
When managing grazing, ensure that the gates are opened smoothly, and the process of grazing, herding, feeding, and watering is stable to avoid overcrowding. On good days, allow sheep to graze for more than six hours. Choose pastures with abundant forage and warm shelters, except on windy days. When selecting grazing areas, prioritize sunny slopes first, then shaded ones; distant pastures first, then nearby ones; the bottom of the ditch first, followed by the slope; and short grass before tall grass. Use the lynch method to manage the flock—use distant ranches and leave closer areas for lambs and thinner sheep.
Before heading out in the morning, open doors and windows on the leeward side to release hot air. Once the indoor and outdoor temperatures are similar, lead the sheep out to prevent them from catching cold. This careful management ensures the health and comfort of the flock throughout the winter season.
