Feeding Guide
- As a low-fibre, high grain supplement, it is designed for feeding at 1-2% of bodyweight per day in troughs or selffeeders, in conjunction with fibre forage.
- When commencing to feed pellets, an introductory adaption period over 2 weeks is recommended to condition the rumen to the pellet ingredients.
- Do not overfeed these pellets. Slides on self-feeders should be adjusted down to regulate intake.
- Controlled and gradual feeding is important and continuous access to fibre sources is critical for proper rumen function. Give special attention to controlling the introduction of pellets to excessively hungry or drought-affected stock.
- During the introduction, offer pellets at 0.2% of bodyweight per day and slowly increase the daily amount over 10-14 days up to 2% of bodyweight per day, by which time the stock should be consuming pellets freely, with fibre always available to make up the balance of the total diet intake. Ensure that clean fresh water is available at all times
