In ruminants, colostrum is a vital source of immunoglobulins that provide passive immunity for their offspring during the neonatal period. It is suggested that colostral immunoglobulin G (IgG) concentration varies between and within breeds and could also be affected by maternal factors. The aim of this study was to investigate possible effects of litter type and ewe parturition number on colost...

Materials and methods: In Trial One (2272 pigs), litters were weaned at 12, 15, 18, and 21 days of age. In Trial Two (3456 pigs), litters were weaned at 15, 16, 18, 19, 21, and 22 days of age and categorized into three treatments (15.5, 18.5, and 21.5 days of age). In Trial Two, pigs in each age group were fed one of two nursery feeding programs. Each trial was conducted as a randomized complet...

Two experiments with 49 crossbred pigs were conducted to examine the effects of age and weaning system on various indicators of digestive development and capacity. In Exp. 1, pigs reared exclusively by the sow with no access to creep feed were killed at 1, 8, 16 and 22 d of age. Other pigs, weaned at 16 d of age to a milk protein diet fed either in dry or liquid form, were killed at 22 d of age...

The objective of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of early weaning fall-born calves on heifer and calf performance in Florida. Over two consecutive years, 3-yr-old Braford and Brahman x Angus first-calf heifers were assigned randomly to one of two treatments; early-weaned (EW, n = 20 and 30 for yr 1 and 2, respectively) and normal-weaned (NW, n = 20 and 38 for yr 1 and 2, respect...

The literature on gender peer effects documents that exposure to opposite gender peers can lead to higher academic performances for boys but lower outcomes, especially in math, for girls. This result can be explained by two distinct exposure effects. One is inside-class time exposure (e.g. boy peers are disruptive and lower the quality of student-teacher interactions) and the other is outside-c...

Data of 3272 lambing records collected on 818 ewes born from 689 dams and sired by 371 rams were used in the evaluation of ewe lifetime productivity (total number born, number weaned and total weight weaned). These records were collected from ewes born from 1969 to 1994 and which gave birth during the period from 1971 to 1999. Year of birth of ewe and ewe two-tooth liveweight affected the ewe p...
