Feeding Directions
Initially, feed this product at a minimum of 1.5% of body weight and gradually increase the feed rate to 3% of body weight. For example, a 500-pound calf would initially receive a minimum of 7.5 pounds per head per day and gradually increase up to 15 pounds per head per day. Consult your local Purina® representative for additional information on how to start cattle on feed
Caution
DO NOT FEED TO SHEEP DUE TO HIGH LEVELS OF SUPPLEMENTAL COPPER.
Store in a dry, well- ventilated area protected from rodents and insects. Do not feed moldy or infested feed to animals as it may cause illness, performance loss or death.
USE ONLY AS DIRECTED
IMPORTANT:
Follow these management practices:
1. Do not allow animals to run out of feed.
2. Feeders/bunks should be well protected and managed to prevent accumulation of fines and wet, moldy feed.
3. When making a ration change, allow 7 to 10 days for animals to adjust to the new ration.
4. Provide adequate feeder space for each animal.
5. Stressed cattle should be placed in clean, uncrowded environments.
6. Provide mineral and salt free choice.
7. Provide fresh, clean water near the feeding area.
In groups of cattle, 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 cattle. If bloat occurs, please review feed management practices
