One of livestock commodities that has been well developed in Indonesia is sheep. Sheep production can be increased by good management practices, one of these is shearing program. Shearing on local sheep hasn‟t been implemented routinely in Indonesia for sanitation purpose, and this aspect hasn‟t been studied intensively. This research was conducted to study effect of shearing on sheep performances. Twenty four Garut sheep were used in this research, under the age of one year, consisted of four shorn male, four unshorn male, four shorn female, four unshorn female, four shorn ewe, and four unshorn ewe. Body weight gain was observed everyweek and then converted to daily gain. Consumption rate was observed with total roughage and concentrate consumption in one day. Sanitation was observed by organoleptic method and ectoparasite was observed by using total ectoparasite in three region (mid side, neck and ramp). The result show that didn‟t give significant effects (P<0 a="" affect="" affected="" age="" and="" are="" as="" at="" average="" become="" between="" but="" cleanness="" concluded="" consumption="" daily="" damalinia="" different="" dry="" ectoparasite.="" ectoparasites="" ewe="" farming="" female="" fewer="" font="" for="" found="" gain="" garut="" give="" good="" grown="" had="" higher="" i0="" in="" infestation.="" interaction="" is="" it="" level="" lice="" male.="" many="" matter="" number="" of="" on="" ovis="" physiology.="" practices="" ration="" recommended="" roughage="" routinely="" same="" shearing="" sheep.="" sheep="" shorn="" significantly="" than="" that="" the="" ticks.="" to="" treatment="" type="" unshorn="" was="" were="" which="" with="">
