Abstract
12 pair of 1- to 2-month-old twin lambs, of which both members of the pair were of the same sex, were treated with a subcut. implantation of 12 mg. of stilbestrol and results noted. No significant difference in rate of gain occurred, but all treated lambs gained normally. The ability of either male or female lambs to reproduce was not apparently impaired with treatments of this dosage at this age.Keywords
