Co-op 16% Coarse Lamb Grower-Finisher, formulated to grow and finish lambs economically for sale and show, is a textured feed with added molasses. This feed is fully fortified with vitamins and minerals. Also contains ammonium chloride to help reduce urinary calculi (water belly) and selenium from selenium yeast as well as added vitamin E to help prevent White Muscle Disease, and is formulated using high-quality proteins to maximize lamb growth.
Lambs should be fed twice a day and worked up to full feed over a 2 to 3 week period. To maintain rumen health and prevent digestive upset, feed 0.50 to 0.75 lb of fine-stemmed hay per head per day along with the full feed of Co-op 16% Lamb Grower/Finisher Coarse. Do not exceed 0.30 ppm supplemental selenium in the total ration. Always provide plenty of clean, fresh water.
