Feeding Directions
Best Results

Feed at a rate of 0.25 to 2.5 pounds per head per day along with good quality grass hay. Can also be fed free-choice to high-producing goats on range or under dry lot conditions after they have acclimated to this ration. These are only guidelines for consumption. Some goats may have a tendency to go off feed. If this occurs, feed long stem grass hay for two to three days then continue feeding this ration. Feed consumption will vary with life stage, environment, and activity.

Caution

Store in a dry, well-ventilated area protected from rodents and insects. Do not feed moldy or insect-infested feed to animals as it may cause illness, performance loss or death.

This product contains copper and should not be fed to sheep.

USE ONLY AS DIRECTED.

Important

Start kids on colostrum milk from birth to 3 days of age; feed Land O’Lakes^® Doe’s Match^® Kid Milk Replacer or Purina^® Goat Kid Milk Replacer from 2 days until 4-8 weeks of age.

If kids have not been creep fed or they were purchased, then they should be placed on grass hay on a free-choice basis after arrival.

When making a ration change, allow 7 to 10 days for animals to adjust to the new ration.

Keep a constant supply of complete feed available. Do not let fine material accumulate in feeders.

Provide adequate bunk space for each animal. Bunks should be well-protected and well-managed to prevent feed from becoming wet or moldy.

Provide a source of fresh, clean water at all times.

Feed Purina^® Goat Mineral free-choice.

Consult your veterinarian for the recommended health program for your local area.

This includes internal and external parasite control. In groups of goats there are certain animals that experience chronic bloat, or other digestive disturbances and consequently, are poor performers. In addition, excess feed consumption, severe weather changes resulting in erratic feed consumption and poorly managed feeding practices, can increase the incidence of bloat in all goats. If bloating occurs, the above management practices should be reviewed and your veterinarian consulted.
