Growth development and composition of the ovine conceptus and mamary gland during pregnancy
One-hundred and ten pregnant Targhee ewes that had been mated to Suffolk rams were killed at different stages of gestation. Mammary glands were removed an the gravid uterus was dissected into fetus, membranes, fluids and uterus components. The water, fat, ash, nitrogen and energy contents of the different components were determined. The uteri and mammary glands of 28 non-pregnant ewes were also analysed for chemical composition. Relationships were derived to describe growth and retention of the different nutrients in the various products of conception during pregnancy
