Abstract

The objective of this study was to observe and compare thermal insulation of birthcoat and rectal temperature in 3 days old lambs (Suffolk x Merinolandschaf-SFxML, Šumavská ovce-S) exposed to cold environment (4.08 degr.C) and rain.The results showed that cold resistance is influenced by breed, birthcoat character respectively and that the breed S is better adapted to cold and rainy conditions than SFxML crossbreed.
