FEATURES & BENEFITS
Nutri-Shur™ Nutrient Assurance Program Co-op's Nutri-Shur™ Nutrient Assurance Program is a complete multi step program that provides you with the knowledge that our products are manufactured, formulated and tested to deliver the nutrients you expect.
Medicated with Chlortetracycline – 80 g/ton 12% Pelleted Ewe Developer & Gestation Feed is medicated with Chlortetracycline to reduce the incidence of (vibrionic) abortion caused by Campylobacter fetus infection susceptible to Chlortetracycline.
No Added Copper Co-op 12% Pelleted Ewe Developer & Gestation Feed contains no added copper. Sheep are less tolerant of excess copper than most livestock species. An excess of dietary copper can potentially cause death in sheep. Co-op helps to reduce that possibility by not adding copper to sheep diets.
Production-Oriented Formulation Targeted nutrient levels are specifically designed to support fetal growth. When fed in conjunction with a quality forage program, 12% Pelleted Ewe Developer & Gestation Feed-CTC supports fetal development, as well as providing the nutritional requirements of the ewe, preparing her for lambing and subsequent milk production.
Pelleted Form Research has clearly demonstrated that the pelleting process creates a more digestible product, allowing sheep to derive more net nutritional benefit as compared to the same quantity of the same feed in mash form. This provides for improved feed efficiency while reducing dust and feed waste.
Selenium yeast Selenium is a critical element that has significant anti-oxidant activity in sheep. Selenium yeast is included in the formulation because of its improved bioavailability over other forms of supplemental selenium.
Supplemental Protein Protein is necessary to facilitate muscle growth, tissue development, immune function, weight gain, milk production and reproductive processes. Feeding sheep only forages that are deficient in protein will result in poor performance and undesirable production results. 12% Pelleted Ewe Developer & Gestation Feed-CTC helps provide the protein supplementation that is necessary for the ewe to properly develop the unborn lamb.
Energy Level 12% Pelleted Ewe Developer & Gestation Feed-CTC has been designed with an energy level that will work in harmony with the proteins and other nutrients to allow for gestation and maintenance of adequate body condition.
Added Minerals Minerals are primary components of proper body structure, body maintenance and overall health. 12% Pelleted Ewe Developer & Gestation Feed-CTC 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 ewes remain healthy and maintain a robust appearance.
50 # Poly Bags The 50 pound poly package helps maintain product freshness, package integrity and provides for ease of handling.

FEEDING DIRECTIONS

Feed 12% Pelleted Ewe Developer & Gestation Feed-CTC at 2 lb per head per day to provide 80 mg of chlortetracycline per head per day. Feed at least 0.75 lb of long stemmed hay per head per day to help maintain rumen health. Feed at far end of pen to encourage exercise. Watch for slow ewes as these are most likely to develop ketosis. Always provide clean, fresh water. Do not exceed 0.30 ppm supplemental selenium in the total ration.
