Directions for use
- CREEP FEEDING ON PASTURE: Feed ad-lib in a self–feeder while on the ewe in a creep feeding yard. Do not allow ewe access to the feeder. Lambs will receive enough roughage while grazing with the ewe.
- EARLY WEANING IN YARDS: Lambs under 15kg
- Week 1: Offer 25-50g/head/day in troughs.
- Feeding rates can be 50g/head/day when the lambs are leaving the troughs empty.
- Keep feeding this product until the lambs reach between 15-18kg.
- Remove stale feed from the troughs daily.
- Good quality leafy hay must be available at all times e.g. oaten, barley or irrigated Rhodes grass hay.
- Feed should be available at all times.
- Lambs should always have access to cool, clean, fresh water.
- Water troughs should be cleaned a minimum of once a day to improve feed intakes
*When lambs reach 18kg change to RIVERINA LAMB FEEDLOT PELLETS.
