Directions
Feed this product at the rate of 5 pounds per head per day along the
good quality forage to starting or receiving cattle.1. When making a ration change, allow 7-10 days for animals to adjust
to the new ration.
2. Provide a source of fresh clean water at all times.
3. Do not allow fine material to accumulate in feeders.
4. Provide adequate bunk space for each animal. Bunks should be
well protected and well managed to prevent feed from becoming
wet and molding.
5. Manage bunks to minimize quantity of feed accumulating in trough.
6. Cattle should be vaccinated against enterotoxemia.
7. Consult your veterinarian for recommended health programs for
your local area.
8. Provide plain salt and mineral free choice.
9. Have feed and/or forage available for cattle at all times.In groups of cattle, there are certain animals who experience chronic
bloat, or other digestive disturbances, and consequently, are poor
performers. In addition, feed consumption in excess of 3-3.5% of body
weight, severe weather changes resulting in erratic feed consumption,
and poorly managed feeding practices can increase the incidence of
bloat in all cattle. If bloating does occur, the above management
practices should be reviewed. If bloating continues, feed 2-3 pounds
of hay per head per day or begin switching cattle to a growing ration
over a 5-7 day adaptation period.
