Average weight gains of lambs m experiments 1 and 2 fed an all-milk protein or soy-46 milk replacer (46% of total protein from a soybean protein concentrate), with 15% homogenized lard, for about 7 weeks were 251 and 147 g/day, respectively. Digestibility of dry matter averaged 97 and 95%, and for nitrogen, 97 and 90% (P &lt 0.05), respectively, for lambs fed the two milk replacers. The same all-milk or soy-46 formulas, or cow's whole milk, plus a pelleted concentrate and hay were fed to a total of 42 lambs in experiments 3 and 4. Average weight gains to weaning at 9 and 14 kg body weight in experiments 3 and 4, respectively, were 141, 132 and 163 g/day for the three treatments. Weight gains to 40 kg body weight were 185, 190 and 239 g/day. The soybean concentrate settled out of the liquid diet and therefore was not suitable for ad libitum feeding.  aAnimal feeding  aDigestibility  aFeed intake  aSheep  asoymilk  aAlimento para animal  aCordeiro  aCrescimento  aDigestibilidade  aIngestão  aLeite de Soja  aNutrição animal  aOvino  aGrowth  aNitrogen retention1 aCAMERON, C.
