Goat Blend is a nutritious food formulated to be fed to growing and lactating goats, and is also an ideal diet for maintenance. Goat Blend is a mix of grains and pellets coated in molasses and vegetable oil. Feeding Recommendations The feeding rate of Goat Blend will vary depending on a number of factors such as body weight and condition, pregnancy, lactation (level of milk production), activity and quality of the roughage being fed. Generally total daily feed consumption, including roughage, will be between 2% to 3.5% of body weight. Consumption of Goat Blend will generally be between 10% and 75% of the total feed consumed. Introduce Goat Blend gradually and avoid sudden changes to diet as digestive problems may occur. If digestive problems occur reduce the amount of blend being fed and increase roughage consumption until normal digestive activity returns. Dual Purpose Goat Blend is a well-balanced nutritious food that can be fed to other ruminants such as cattle and deer. Feeding recommendations are similar to those above. Roughage and clean, fresh water must be available at all times.
