Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of different rearing methods on rumen fermentation and blood parameters of Binglangjiang buffalo calves. A total of 42 healthy newborn calves were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups (groups Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ) according to their birth date, and 14 individuals in each group with half males and half females. Calves were fed colostrum at 1 to 5 days of age, and those at 6 to 90 days in groups I and Ⅱ were fed maternal milk of 3.5 and 4.5 kg/d per calf, respectively, and those in group Ⅲ were given milk replacer of 0.8 kg/d per calf (diluted 1:5 with water). The starters and the maize silage were provided at 6 and 15 days of age, respectively. The single-column feeding system was employed, and the weaning was performed at 90 days of age. The experimental period was 180 days. The rumen fluid and blood were collected at 5, 45, 90 and 180 days of age, respectively, for determination of rumen fluid volatile fatty acids (VFA) content, plasma biochemical indicators and serum hormone levels. The results showed as follows:1) before 60 days of age, average dry matter intake (ADMI) of starters in groups Ⅰ and Ⅲ was significantly higher than that in group Ⅱ (P<0.05), at 61 to 90 days of age, group Ⅰ was significantly higher than group Ⅱ(P<0.05), but had no significant difference from group Ⅲ (P>0.05), and at 91 to 180 days of age, there were no significant difference among groups (P>0.05); the ADMI of maize silage had no significant difference among groups during the whole experimental period (P>0.05). 2) The pH and ammonia nitrogen (NH₃-N) content in rumen fluid of calves were not significantly different among groups (P>0.05), and all of them were in the normal range; at 90 days of age, the content of total VFA (TVFA) in groups Ⅰ and Ⅲ was significantly higher than that in group Ⅱ (P<0.05), the content of acetic acid in group Ⅱ was significantly higher than that in group Ⅰ while the content of propionic acid in group Ⅰ was significantly higher than that in group Ⅱ (P<0.05), but no significant difference was found for the other VFA contents (P>0.05), and neither was found for all VFA at 45 and 180 days of age (P>0.05). 3) The content of plasma triglyceride in groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ was significantly higher than that in group Ⅲ (P<0.05) at 45 days of age; plasma albumin, triglyceride and total cholesterol contents in group Ⅱ were significantly higher than those in group Ⅲ (P<0.05) at 90 days of age. 4) The serum triiodothyronine (T₃) content in group Ⅱ was significantly higher than that in group Ⅲ (P<0.05) at 45 and 90 days of age, but the difference between the three groups at 180 days of age was not significant (P>0.05); the difference of serum thyroxine (T₄) content was not significant among groups (P>0.05); the serum insulin (INS) content in group Ⅱ was significantly higher than that in group Ⅲ at 90 days of age (P<0.05). It can be seen that different rearing methods only change the contents of acetic acid, propionic acid and TVFA contents in rumen fluid at 90 days of age, plasma triglyceride and serum T₃ contents at 45 days of age, plasma albumin, triglyceride, total cholesterol, and serum T₃ and INS contents at 90 days of age.
