Makanan dan Minuman untuk Kambing
(Sumber: Soedjai, Ahmad. 1975. Beternak Kambing. Bandung-Jakarta: N.V. Masa Baru.)
A) Makanan Daun Turi dan Bertanam Turi. Telah diketahui bahwa daun turi itu baik sekali untuk diberikan sebagai makanan kambing. Daun turi ini mengandung khasiat sebagai berkut:
Ø Menyegarkan, gemuk tetapi tak banyak lemak, dagingnya akan menjadi lunak olehnya.
Ø Memperhalus dan melicinkan kulit.
Ø Menderaskan jalan air susu dan memperbanyak air susu.
Ø Di dalam perut mudah dicernakan.
Jadi ternyata bahwa daun turi mengandung banyak zat yang baik sekali untuk tubuh kambing. Bagi orang yang mempunyai kambing yang tidak banyak, cukuplah ia menanam turi di pematangan sawah, di muka rumah atau dikebunnya, di antara tanaman ketelah pohon dan sebagainya. Turi itu di banyak tempat dapat tumbuh subur dan lekas besar. Begitu pula di sisi selokan, parit dapat tumbuh subur dan tempat yang banyak mengandung air. Umur pohon turi sampai dua tahun. Setelah itu harus diganti dengan tanaman yang baru.
Cara menanam pohon Turi: yang ditanam adalah bijiya, sebaiknya disemaikan dahulu. Pilihlah biji turi yang sudah tua dan yang sudah keras. Apabila benih sudah sekitar 20 cm tingginya bolehlah dipindahkan. Janganlah bertanam turi pada waktu banyak turun hujan. Tanaman itu akan mungkin terendam air dan jadi mati atau sekurangnya akan diserang oleh ulat kecil. Bibit turii hendaknya ditanam di atas tanah yang sudah dicangkul dan yang sudah disiram air. Jarak tanaman satu sama lain sekitara 1 meter. Turi akan tumbuh berumpun terdiri atas 3-4 batang. Batang yang tidak baik harus diambil dan dibuang. Dan ditinggalkan sekitar dua batang yang paling baik di tiap rumpun. Jika umur turi sekitar 4 ulan, bolehlah daunnya mulai dipetik untuk makanan kambing. Memetiknya harus teratur yakni tiap cabang boleh dipetik tiap dua minggu sekali. Tiap kali memetik hanya boleh dari satu cabang saja. Tidak semua macam turi daunnya untuk ternak. Turi berwarna ungu tidak baik untuk ternak sebab daunnya mengandung racun (HCN). Turi putih baik untuk makanan kambing dan ternak lainnya.
B) Memberi Makanan Hijauan. Di atas telah diterangkan bahwa banyak makanan hijauan (rumput, daunan dan lainnya) untuk seekor kambing dewasa yang tidak dilepaskan kandang diperlukan sehari semalamnya sekitar 5-7 kg. makanan sebanyak ini hendaknya jangan diberikan sekaligus tetapi harus sebagian. Pagi-pagi diberikan kepadanya sebagian kecil, pada siang hari diberikan sebagian lagi yang lebih banyak pada petang hari harus diberikan yang terbanyak sampai kambing itu makan sekenyangnya. Kebiasaan pada rakyat di desa memberikan hanya pada waktu petang saja makanan itu satu kali. Maksudnya agar ternaknya itu pada malam hari tidak gelisah dan tidak akan keluar kandang. Pemberian makanan seperti ini tidak menjadi apa-apa asal persediaan makanan cukup. Meskipun begitu, bagi kambing yang menyususi anaknya, cara memberikan makanan tersebut di atas tidak begitu baik. Induk kambing pada siang hari menderita agak lapar sedang ia harus menyusukan anaknya. Oleh karena lapar air susunya bias terganggu keluarnya. Anaknya bias menjadi lapar pula di siang hari. Padam alam hari nanti anak itu akan lebih kuat menyusunya dan akan selalu mengganggu induknya, padahal induk kambing itu harus banyak makan, sebab pada siang hari ia belum makan. Leh karena induk selalu diganggu oleh anaknya yang mau menyusui, maka kesehatan induk kambing bisa terganggu.
C) Memberikan air minum. Air minum kambing harus bersih; biasanya diberikan juga pada kambing air cucian beras dicampur dengna garam dan sedikit gula, minuman ini baik sekali untuk kmbing, apalagi untuk kambing yang menyusui anaknya. Sebagai gula diberikan juga tetes yang harganya lebih murah dari gula. Hal ini dapat diselenggarakan kalau tempatnya dekat dengan pabrik gula. Waktu memberikan minum adalah sekitar pukul 10 pagi satu kali dan pukul 2 siang sekali lagi, di halaman kandang, di bagian yang teduh ditempatkan tempat minuman yang cukup besar. Pada waktu tertentu hendaknya tempat minum ini dibersihkan dan airnya diganti dengan air yang baru dan jernih.
