And epidemic prevention work for the flock should also be done well according to procedures. The bodies of the Small-tailed Han sheep should be wiped frequently to keep their skin clean. Their feeding situation, activity situation, etc. should also be observed frequently, and if there is anything abnormal, they should be isolated and treated promptly. At the same time, the temperature of the sheep shed should be controlled well, assistance in breeding the Small-tailed Han sheep should be done well, and the sheep shed should be kept dry, etc., so as to create a good growing environment for the Small-tailed Han sheep.
The above is a brief introduction to the raising techniques for Small-tailed Han sheep. That is all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only, and we hope it can help everyone!
