Table 9 Weight of lamb produced per ewe (kg) at approximately 30, 60, 90, and 120 d after lambing for control ewes and ewes treated with 90 mg meloxicam on d 1 and 4 after lambing. To obtain average weight of an individual lamb at any time point, divide stated value by 1.58 (the average number of lambs reared per ewe) and add 6.3 kg (average birth weight)
