Lamb Performance Pellets with Deccox® 6%

High quality protein feed for young lambs

Suitable for young lambs four days old through until after weaning.

NRM Lamb Performance Pellets with Deccox® 6% are a high protein, readily digestible energy formulation designed to encourage good rumen development in young lambs and aid in the prevention of coccidiosis.

 

Key Benefits and Features

High quality protein pellet, aiding the development of muscle and bone.

Contains highly digestible cereal grains which help stimulate rumen papillae development and encourage greater feed intakes.

Early rumen development reduces the risk of feed intake checks at weaning and may reduce rearing costs.

Contains essential vitamins, minerals, and trace elements needed for optimal growth, development and vigour.

Palatability helps ensure any twin or triplet multiple born lamb is adequately fed until after weaning.

Provides creep feed supplementation for lambs on ewes during pasture shortfalls and helps transition lambs onto pasture at weaning.

Deccox® 6% aids in the prevention of coccidiosis.

 

 

Feeding Rates

May vary with different breeds and farming practices. As a supplement to milk feeding, feed NRM Lamb Performance Pellets with Deccox® ad lib from 4 days of age. Healthy lambs older than 4 weeks of age, over 9kg body weight, and typically eating 200g/ head/day of NRM Lamb Performance Pellets with Deccox®, may be weaned off milk and onto pasture. After weaning, slowly reduce pellet intake over the next 6 weeks to a minimum of 85g NRM Lamb Performance Pellets with Deccox®/head/day.
