Abstract

Authors present the results of their two-year study related Tsigai sheep breeding. Investigated Tsigai ewes gave much more milk than Hungarian Worsted Merino even in extensive condition as well. The results verified that the half of Tsigai ewes could be milked in average for 131 days after the separation of the lambs (day 30.). The ewes were capable to produce during the lactation period 102 litres which correspond to daily 0.78 litres. The average milk composition relative to the milking period was supposed around the following values: fat content 6.97%; protein content 5.44%; lactose content 4.80%; ash content 0.95%; non-fat solids 11.19% and the total solids 18.16%. Finally the Authors proposed the milking of Tsigai ewes in 5-6 month lactation, furthermore the cross-breeding with the Merino or other genotypes towards for increasing the income of the sheep breeding.
