Commercial Lambs & Hoggets

The mineral specification that is used in Greenvale Lamb & Hogget Rations contains diuretic agents that help to acidify the urine and assist in the prevention of urinary calculi. These rations also contain an antidote to liver copper accumulation and have unique sweeteners and flavourings to stimulate and maintain high feed intakes.

Feeding Guidelines for Sheep

• FAlways ensure that fresh water and good quality forage are available
• At high feeding rates (greater than 1 kg/hd/day) feed twice a day to reduce the risk of digestive upsets
• As a preventative against grass tetany in lactating ewes add calcined magnesite (Cal Mag) to the feed (e.g. 10 kgs Cal Mag per tonne of feed, and feed at least 0.5kgs/ewe/day)
• Avoid feeds containing magnesium for ewes before lambing as it increases the risk of hypocalcaemia
• Never feed male lambs or hoggets rations containing magnesium as it may lead to urinary calculi
