I'll get you started. On lambs it would depend heavily on the frame type and breeding. I've got Dorset based ewes and rams with a medium frame. I generally feed them out in the barn from birth to finish, but occasionally, I'll pasture a group, if they go out at 40-50 pounds I usually will see .32 ADG on cool season grasses, no supplement except for minerals.
