FEATURES & BENEFITS
Lasalocid – 30 g/ton Lasalocid is for the prevention of coccidiosis caused by Eimeria ovina, Eimeria crandallis, Eimeria ovinoidalis (Eimeria ninakohlyakimovae), Eimeria parva and Eimeria intricata in sheep maintained in confinement.
Growth Formulation Targeted nutrient levels are specifically designed for healthy, sound development and growth.
Mini-Pellet Form Manufactured in a mini-pellet to promote consumption by young lambs.
Selenium yeast Selenium is a critical element that has significant anti-oxidant activity in lambs. Selenium yeast is included in the formulation because of its improved bioavailability over other forms of supplemental selenium.
Protein and Amino Acid Balance Protein is necessary to facilitate muscle and tissue development as well as weight gain. Proteins are made up of amino acids and while it is certainly critical to supply the total amount of protein, it is also important that individual amino acids be included in the proper quantities and relationship to each other. Pelleted Lamb Starter-BOV has been formulated to appropriately address all facets of the lamb’s protein/amino acid requirements so as to support all body functions.
Energy Level 18% Pelleted Lamb Starter has been designed with an energy level that will work in harmony with the proteins and other nutrients to allow for muscle and skeletal development while maintaining tissue health and avoiding excessive fat deposition.
Added Minerals Minerals are primary components of proper body structure, body maintenance and wool quality. Pelleted Lamb Starter is well fortified with both macro and trace minerals, all in proper relationship to each other.
Added Vitamins Vitamins A, D and E are added to help lambs remain healthy and maintain a robust appearance.
Ammonium Chloride Ammonium chloride has been included to help acidify urine, which has been shown to help prevent urinary calculi. Thus, ammonium chloride is the source of the non-protein nitrogen in 18% Pelleted Lamb Starter – BOV. The 18% crude protein in this product includes not more than 1.00% equivalent crude protein from non-protein nitrogen.
Complete and Balanced Nutrition A healthy, high performing lamb’s robust immune system is the result of a combination of complete and balanced nutrition, such as provided by Pelleted Lamb Starter, along with an effective vaccination program.
50 # Poly Bags The 50 pound poly package helps maintain product freshness, package integrity and provides for ease of handling.

Do not exceed 0.30 ppm supplemental selenium in the total ration. CAUTION: The safety of Lasalocid for use in unapproved species has not been established. Do not allow horses or other equines access to feeds containing Lasalocid as ingestion may be fatal.
