title = "Body Condition Scoring for Sheep"

content = """
Body condition scoring for sheep uses a 1-to-5 scale. Assessment at key
stages supports flock health and reproductive success.

**Scoring Points:** Feel over the loin and behind the last rib. Score 1 is
emaciated with sharp spine and no muscle; score 5 is obese with excess fat
over spine and ribs. Score 3 represents moderate condition with spine
palpable but rounded.

**Targets:** Ewes should be BCS 3 to 3.5 at breeding and 2.5 to 3 at
lambing. Thin ewes have lower lambing rates and weaker lambs; overfat
ewes may have dystocia. Adjust feeding to achieve targets 6 to 8 weeks
before breeding.

**Timing:** Score at weaning, flushing, breeding, and pre-lambing. Use
scores to group animals for differential feeding when needed.
