PRODUCT FEATURES

• With best bruised oats and other cereals, carefully micronised to improve digestibility which helps reduce the risk of digestive upsets. These supply calories from soluble carbohydrate and fermentable fibre.
• Include quality digestible fibre from grassmeal to help with rumen function to minimise acidosis.
• Quality protein for muscle and tissue repair and development as well as milk and hair production.
• Fully balanced with vitamins and minerals for health and well-being.
• Contain Sel-Plex® organic selenium to support fertility, immunity and muscle function. Much modern pasture and forage is selenium deficient so ensuring goats receive a good supply of this vital mineral will help support general good health and be passed to kids via the milk.
• With a blend of Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids for a shiny coat.
• With a light molasses coating.

FEEDING INSTRUCTIONS

Small Goat / Pygmy (25 – 50kg): 0.5 – 1kg Goat Mix per Day

Large Goat (50 – 100kg): 1 – 2kg Goat Mix per Day

Additional Feeding Recommendations

– Molassed Goat Mix should be fed as required alongside forage based on the guidelines in the table above.

– Divide the concentrate ration into two or more small meals.

– Make any changes to diet gradually over 7 to 14 days to avoid upsetting the bacterial population of the rumen.

– Ad lib forage (grass, hay, haylage) should be available year-round and should comprise a minimum of 40 – 50% of the total daily ration.

– Forage is best fed in a raised rack to satisfy a goat’s need to browse rather than graze.

– Avoid using haynets for goats as they tend to get themselves caught in them.

– Feeding hay or fresh forage before giving concentrates will initiate chewing and saliva production and aid bicarbonate production. This buffers the acids of the rumen to help maintain a stable rumen pH which is especially important at the morning feeding.

– Mouldy feed or forage is potentially lethal to goats as the mould can upset the bacterial population of the rumen.

– Chopped alfalfa products, such as Alfalfa Blend from the Baileys Horse Feed range, are ideal sources of additional good quality protein and fibre.

FEEDING INSTRUCTIONS

Instructions for use:

Grass, hay or silage will form the basis of the diet. In winter you should allow 2kg of hay each per day for adult sheep. Additional hay may also be necessary in dry summers when grass is limited. Make any changes slowly and introduce concentrate feed gradually. It is usual to split the total amount into two or three feeds.

Maintenance – adult sheep will usually need up to 0.5kg of Sheep Mix or Ewe Nuts per day.

Ewes – after weaning

Ewes should be monitored and not allowed to become over fat. Those in poor condition should be given Ewe Nuts or Sheep Mix, with quantities gradually increasing prior to tupping. Start with about 0.25kg per head, per day two weeks before tupping, and build up to 0.5kg, tailing off again after tupping. Feeding extra nutrients is essential if grass is limited.

Ewes – Lambing

Ewes will usually need to be fed Sheep Mix or Ewe Nuts from six to eight weeks pre-lambing, and certainly in the four weeks before, when unborn lambs are developing rapidly. Introduce feed at 0.25kg per day and build up (to about 1.0kg/head/day) over the weeks before lambing. Be careful not to overfeed, especially young ewes or those lambing for the first time.

Ewes – during lactation

The ewe’s energy requirements will be greater than when she was pregnant. If lambing early, supplementary feeding of hay or straw, and up to 1kg of Sheep Mix or Ewe Nuts per head, per day, will probably be necessary throughout the first four weeks after lambing and can then gradually be reduced over the following two to four weeks.

Lambs

Start lambs on Sheep Mix or Lamb Starter/Grower from the age of about seven days. Offer small amounts of feed for them to pick at, as well as good quality hay. This can gradually be increased so that by the time they are weaned (usually at about three months) they are eating at least 0.4kg of concentrate feed a day. In late season when grazing is limited, Lamb Finisher can be fed at up to 1.0kg per head per day.

Rams

May be fed Sheep Mix at up to 1.0kg per head per day.

FEEDING INSTRUCTIONS

Pygmy goats thrive on routine so try to feed them at the same time each day. It is advisable to feed them twice per day – so split the mix evenly between each meal. The rest of their daily diet should be made up of good quality hay, which can be made available at all times for them to help themselves. Make sure that clean, fresh water is also available at all times. Feed between 80g to 270g per day depending on size, and condition.
