CHIO SHEEP -A DUAL PURPOSE SHEEP


In November 2009 we brought back together with Cyprus Shami goats a pair of sheep known as CHIO. This breed of sheep is dual purpose as it can produce reasonably high quantity of Milk(2-3 kg /day/sheep)and for meat achieve 30-35 kg live-weight between 4-5 month at a growth rate of 200-300 gm per day.The pair have produced a big kid and products of crosses with some local sheep have shown that the kids produced are bigger than the mother.
The CHIO sheep now are available from Cyprus if anybody in Malaysia is interested we can import and supply them. Displayed here are pages from the brochure.Frozen Chio sheep semen shall also be made available when the semen collection and preservation centre in Cyprus is ready in about 4 months time from now.






Translation In Bahasa Malaysia-BIRI-BIRI CHIOS

Biri-Biri Chios berasal dari Chios, di kepulauan Greek dan diimport ke Cyprus pada 1949. Ia digunakan sebagai gerompok tulen untuk meningkatkan kebakaan biri-biri tempatan. Tidak dinafikan, Chios sangat sesuai untuk sistem pengeluaran intensif kerana sifat-sifat istimewanya yang matang awal, cepat membiak tanpa mengikut musim, serta banyak mengeluarkan susu. Berat badan pejantan lebih kurang 80 kg, induk betina 65 kg, dengan ekor tidak gemuk dan biasanya berbentuk kon.

Anak-anak betina mencapai kematangan seksual antara 7-8 bulan. Kajian UNDP menunjukkan pada umur 12 bulan, peratus kebuntingan baka Chios mencapai 94% berbanding 59% bagi baka Awassi. Chios pada umumnya beranak kembar, kadang-kadang beranak tiga atau empat. Nisbah kelahiran anak bagi setiap ibu ialah 1.89.

Di Cyprus, Chios menghasilkan 350 kg susu bagi setiap tempoh laktasi, menunjukkan baka ini berdaya maju dari segi ekonomi. Hasil jualan susu umumnya menyumbang 50% daripada jumlah pendapatan keseluruhan. Purata kadar pertumbuhan anak pula di antara 200 – 300 kg sehari, bergantung pada jantina dan jenis kelahiran. Pengeluaran daging sangat baik kerana kadar kelahiran anak yang tinggi, bahkan serata dari segi kadar pertumbuhan.


KENAPA ANDA PERLU MEMBELI KAMBING DAN BIRI-BIRI DARI CYPRUS

1. Disahkan bebas daripada penyakit seperti bruselosis
2. Terpilih dari segi pedigri atau darjah kebakaan
3. Lebih awal mencapai umur untuk pembiakan dengan rekod kelahiran kembar yang tinggi
4. Hasil pengeluaran susu mengkagumkan
5. Membiak tidak mengikut musim dan beradapatasi baik dalam persekitaran Arabia.

Report on the performance of Cyprus Shami Goats Imported To Malaysia Since November 1 2009

Cyprus Shami Goats have been living in Malaysian farms for the last six month since November 1 2009.We have experienced to no casualty on arrival to the quarrantine period at a farm in Kota Negeri Sembilan. Mortality after six month is less than 8 % due to various reasons.Currently no further casualty has been reported by the farms.



At a farm in Chembong 100 does gave birth to 180 kids during the month of march to april 2010.Birth weight ranges from 3.5 to 4 kg each. Some are triplet and most are single or twin.One doe gave birth to six kids and five of them survived.



A research farm indicated that the fastest growth among the kids is 9 kg in a month for a kid that was born at 4 kg. weight. (that is 300 gms/day). Mostly the kids grow at a rate between 200-300 gms per day



For milk production a farm reported a milking rate of 2.5- 3 kg per goat per day for does after second pregnancy. Milk production target is an average of about 4 kg. per day per goat after a experiencing few pregnancies.



Malaysian Agricultural Research and Development (MARDI) is planning to do confirmation research and field trial on Cyprus Shami Goat within this year.



Cyprus Shami Goats with its special charateristics as DUAL PURPOSE GOAT is finally going to be recognised as a valuable breed that will contribute greatly towards the development of the Malaysian Meat and dairy goat industry. Farmers using this breed shall experienced better viability and sustainability in their goat farming business simply because they have the milk production that will give them constant cashflow (revenue from goat milk is six time higher than meat in Malaysia).
