| An increased intake of rumen undegradable protein (RUP) or n-3 fatty acids (FA) around mating is connected with improved reproductive efficiency in ewes. This experiment was aimed to study whether the ratio of female lambs was greater when Kurdish × Romanov ewes were received a diet rich in n-3 FA and RUP together around mating. Experimental diets were supplemented with 5% (DM basis) Ca salts of saturated FA (SFA), 5% Ca salts of fish oil (as n-3 FA source; n-3FO), or a combination of 5% Ca salts of fish oil and 5% fish meal (as a RUP source; n-3FO+RUP). The results showed that the proportion of total n-3 polyunsaturated FA (PUFA) in plasma increased and the n-6:n-3 decreased at CIDR removal day in animals received the n-3FO+RUP diet (P < 0.05) compared with the other diets. Plasma concentrations of oestradiol, glucose, and urea nitrogen (UN) at the day of oestrus (P < 0.05) was also lower when ewes received the n-3FO+RUP diet compared with the other diets. The ratio of female lambs was greater when ewes were fed the n-3FO+RUP diet around mating (P < 0.05) and was greater than an expected 50:50 ratio (72% females, P = 0.028). It was concluded that feeding ewes a diet rich in n-3 FA and RUP content around mating, rather than n-3 FA alone, could skew the sex ratio of lambs toward females. | ||
