Abstract

The experiment aimed to evaluate the in vivo response and after slaughter lambs Corriedade, feedlot and fed a commercial diet ad libitum. The animals were divided into two groups, with or without the use of organic phosphorus and Vitamin B12 (FOB12). The study was conducted between March and June 2011, experimental feedlot, located on private property in Dom Pedrito - RS. We evaluated the following items: in vivo conformation, length, height, hot carcass weight and hot carcass yield. Data were tabulated for specific worksheets after being analyzed by analysis of variance at 5% for comparison of means. There was no effect between treatments with and without the application of FOB12 to the characteristics evaluated in vivo in Corriedale sheep feedlot. However, FOB12 influenced the characteristics of body condition scores and hot carcass weight.
