The Influence of Different Exercise Modes on Semen Quality of Texel Ram
In order to study the effect of exercise mode on semen quality and libido of Texel rams,40 healthy Texel rams with normal libido were selected and randomly divided into 4 groups with 10 rams in each group.Ten weeks of exercise training in different ways was carried out.Semen was collected twice at intervals on the last day of the trial period,and the semen quality and libido scores of the four groups of rams were measured.The results showed as follows:compared with the control group,the exercise mode of group A,group B and group C significantly increased the fresh sperm motility rate of rams(P<0.01),and the exercise mode had no significant effect on semen volume and sperm density.Compared with group A and control group,the sperm deformity rate of rams in group B and group C was significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the number of effective sperm in group B and group C was significantly increased(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,group A,group B and group C significantly reduced the sexual response time of breeding rams(P<0.05),and group A was significantly higher than group B and group C(P<0.05);exercise mode had no significant effect on the number of ejaculation and libido scores of rams.This shows that exercise can significantly improve the semen quality and libido of Texel rams,and driving is the best way of exercise for rams.
