Hamra sheep exhibit superior reproductive performance with larger litter size, whereas Rumbi sheep demonstrate distinctly superior pre-weaning growth performance.
Rumbi lambs achieved superior birth weight of 4.86 kg compared to 3.10 kg for Hamra lambs, reflecting substantial breed differences in early growth traits.
Analysis of performance monitoring data supports selective sheep breeding programs, while elevated weaning mortality in Hamra ewes limits overall flock productivity.
