For the prevention of coccidiosis in young sheep caused by Eimeria bakuensis, Eimeria crandalis, Eimeria ovinoidalis and Eimeria parva. Feed at least 28 days during periods of exposure or when experience indicates that coccidiosis is likely to be a hazard.
Co-op sheep and goat feed is a 15% protein, high energy feed. It is formulated to provide the nutrients required for growth and reproduction in both sheep and goats. We have added Deccox to help prevent coccidiosis in your animals. This feed contains supplemental vitamins and minerals but has no added copper so it is safe to feed to sheep.
Feeding Rate: 1 to 4 pounds per head per day
Feed according to animal weight and stage of production. For example, a lactating ewe or doe has a higher nutritional requirement and requires more feed than gestating animals. Likewise, if you want to accelerate growth, you will need to feed at a higher rate.
Other considerations- Good quality hay or pasture, as well as fresh clean water, should be available at all times. Provide a free choice vitamin/mineral supplement to optimize feed and forage intake.
For a good, high quality multi-species feed, trust co-op sheep and goat feed to give your animals what they need.
