Özet
This study is a part of a research project concerned with maternal behaviors before, during and after
parturition of the Akkaraman, Bafra, and F1 BA (Bafra Akkaraman) ewes; and behaviors in the early
postpartum period of the Akkaraman, Bafra, F1 BA, and R1 BBA (Bafra F1 BA) lambs. In this second part,
maternal-offspring behaviors after parturition were studied. This study was conducted at Gözlü State
Farm between 2014 and 2016. The study of the Bafra Akkaraman crossbreeding was started in 2012. In
the presented project, a total of 56 multiparous ewes and their lambs were used. The means for behaviors of the Akkaraman, Bafra, and F1 BA ewes in the 3 hours after parturition were 69.0, 53.3, and 63.6
% (P > 0.05) for the rates of head-neck, which is the first groomed region of the lambs; 0.96 0.32, 2.06
1.45 and 0.34 0.12 min (P > 0.05) for the time taken to first groom the single lambs; 3.01 1.16, 1.38
0.78, and 1.80 0.89 min (P > 0.05) for the time taken to first groom the first lamb of the twins; 0.83
0.26, 4.16 3.76, and 6.54 4.27 min (P > 0.05) for the time taken to first groom in the second lamb of
the twins. In the Akkaraman, Bafra, F1 BA, and R1 BBA lambs, the time taken to make the first successful
stand attempt were 22.61 5.17, 45.40 5.17, 25.68 5.20, and 30.22 6.38 min (P < 0.01), and the
time taken to make the first successful sucking attempt were 29.08 6.12, 58.94 6.32, 50.44 5.91,
and 52.03 7.32 min (P < 0.01), respectively. Consequently, results showed that, overall, Akkaraman
ewes exhibited more distinctive maternal behaviors, while their lambs displayed earlier mother-lamb
bonding and sucking behavior than other genotypes
