Feeding Recommendations:
- Pellets should be introduced gradually over a 7-9 day period, with access to roughage such as cereal hay or straw available at all times.
- Feeding rates will vary based on of the nutrition requirement of the ewe, however use the following as a guide: for a 65kg Ewe, feed 650g per day for maintenance, then in the last month of pregnancy increase to 1kg per day. In the first month of lactation increase to 1.5kg per day, then in the second and third months of lactation decrease to 1kg per day.
- Introduce small amounts (0.25% of bodyweight per day to start), and gradually increase the daily amount over 2 weeks to 2% of bodyweight per day.
- The pellets are designed to be used along with a source of roughage such as cereal hay or straw, and always maintain access to a source of clean fresh water.
