This study was conducted to determine qualities of silages and effects on feed intake, body weight gain, feed:gain ratio and nutrient digestibility in lambs of whole crop barley and oats (as silage or hay) harvested at the milk stage. The results indicated no significant differences for nutrient content, DMI (dry matter intakes), digestibilities, body weight gains or feed:gain ratios between barley and oat silages or between barley and oak hays. However, there was found that the feed conversion of the silage fed groups was better than for the hay fed groups.
