Ewe & Lamb Nuts are formulated to be fed to ewes from one month before lambing and during lactation to maintain body condition and promote milk production in the ewe. Increased lactation will increase lamb growth and survival.
Lasalocid sodium is included in Ewe & Lamb Nuts to improve feed conversion efficiency and as an aid in the prevention of coccidiosis.
Feeding Recommendations
The feeding rate of Ewe & Lamb Nuts will vary depending on a number of factors such as body weight and condition, pregnancy, lactation (level of milk production), activity and quality of the roughage being fed.
Generally Ewe & Lamb Nuts would be fed between 0.5% to 2% of body weight per day along with ad lib. roughage.
Introduce Ewe & Lamb Nuts gradually and avoid sudden changes to diet as digestive problems may occur. If digestive problems occur reduce the amount of nuts being fed and increase roughage consumption until normal digestive activity returns.
Ewe & Lamb Nuts can be fed to cows and calves.
Roughage and clean, fresh water must be available at all times.
