| Abstract | ||
| This study was conducted in the sheep field of the Department of Animal Production-Faculty of Agriculture - University of Kirkuk for the period from 15/6/2021 to 15/9/2021. The study targeted the role of different water types in influencing some of the productive traits of ewes exposed to heat stress in the summer. 20 mature ewes were used at the age of 18 months with an average weight of 44.12 kg. The animals were divided into four groups, each group included five ewes of homogeneous weights, and randomly divided then the coefficients into groups. The 1st treatment was orally administrated with tap water, the 2nd treatment was orally administrated with well water, the 3rd treatment was orally administrated with tap water treated magnetically (1500 gauss) and the 4th treatment was orally administrated with well water treated magnetically (1500 gauss). Both magnetically treated tap and well water groups showed a significant increasing (P≤0.05) in the weight of ewes, an average weight gain, a decrease in the amount of feed intake and an improvement in the coefficient of nutritional conversion. | ||
