This experiment was carried out in animal field of Kosar Com./Erbil, to study the effect of zinc oxide ZnO or nano Zinc oxide nZnO particles as feed supplementation on productive performance and milk components of Awassi ewes during the three months of lactation. 30 pregnant Awassi ewes 30 days before parturition, aged 3-4 years with an average weight of 58 ± 2.19 kg were used. Ewes were randomly distributed into three groups (10 ewes / group ). Basal ration were given (concentrated mixture + hay), the first group was considered a control group fed basal ration, second group was fed on basal ration + 60 mg/DM zinc oxide, third group was fed on basal ration + 60 mg/DM zinc oxide nanoparticles. Daily milk production from ewes was recorded and its components were measured biweekly and the monthly rate was calculated. Results indicate no significant differences in daily weight and dry matter intake in treatment groups compared to control. Milk production and daily milk yield were significant (p?0.05) higher on the nZnO treatment compared to control group during the second and third months of lactation, and a significant (p?0.05) increase in percentage and milk fat yield during the three lactation months. Moreover nZnO treatment showed a significant (p? 0.05) superiority in the amount of milk protein at the first and third month of lactation, and lactose at the third month of lactation. Also, nZnO treatment was significantly (p ? 0.05) superior in Zn concentration in milk compared to the control at the second and third month of lactation. The result revealed that zinc oxide nanoparticles as dietary supplements improved the amount and some components of milk in domestic Awassi ewes .
