SHEEP FEED
STUD RAM PELLET
Sheep Stud Ram Pellet
Woods Sheep Stud Ram Pellet is a medicated stock feed suitable for the preparation of stud rams. It is also suitable for all sheep over 15kg live weight when very limited forage is available. It assists in maintaining body condition in growing and adult sheep during drought conditions. This feed has increased levels of sulphur for adequate wool growth.
This pellet is composed of milled grains, protein meals/pulse seeds (soybean meal, cotton seed meal, palm kernel meal, canola meal, faba beans, chickpeas and/or mung beans), fibre and other food by-products (hulls, millrun and/or biscuit meal), macro-minerals, trace minerals and vitamins. Typically Woods Sheep Stud Ram Pellet contains 30mg/kg Lasalocid sodium, a rumen modifier that helps improve feed conversion.
Feeding Guidelines
Sheep that have not been accustomed to grain feeding must be introduced gradually or it may cause bloat, rumen acidosis and/or possible death. Woods Sheep Stud Ram Pellet should be limit fed to growing sheep over 15kg to target daily intake of around 0.9 to 1.1% of body weight to maintain body condition. Introduce feed gradually to sale rams not accustomed to grain rations. Provide up to 2% of bodyweight daily if fed as only feed or proportionally less if fed with limited medium quality chaffed hay.
Supply Woods Sheep Stud Ram Pellet daily in troughs, conveyor belt or on the ground ensuring that all animals have adequate access to feed. Alternatively, supply pellet in lick self-feeders where intake can be controlled.
BENEFIT: To aid in prevention of 'water belly' in male sheep caused by large urinary calculi lodging in the urine tract, this feed includes ammonium chloride to help break down calculi.
