Product Description

Sheep Mineral 20/5 is a mineral and vitamin supplement formulated especially for sheep. This mineral can be offered free-choice to sheep on pasture or in dry-lot, or used as a premix in on-farm mixed feed or rations.

Features & Benefits

Calcium and phosphorus

A 4 to 1 calcium to phosphorus ratio is safe for all classes of sheep.

High mineral fortification

High trace mineral inclusion helps overcome antagonists and supports optimal animal health and performance.

High vitamin fortification

Vitamins A, D and E support growth, metabolism, reproductive performance and proper immune system function.

Highly palatable

A mineral does no good if sheep won't eat it. The addition of salt and other highly palatable ingredients keep sheep seeking out the mineral feeder.

Rain-Cote

Reduces loss of mineral exposed to wind and weather, improves water resistance and reduces 'bricking-up' in wet weather.

Feeding Directions

Blue Seal Sheep Mineral 20/5 is designed specifically to be fed to lambs/sheep in accordance with the following suggested feeding program:

• Mature sheep should consume between 0.25-0.5 ounce/head/day, on average. Do not offer other salt sources. 0.5 ounce will supply approximately 0.5 mg selenium and 40 IU Vitamin E.

• May also add 2.5% Sheep Mineral 20/5 and 0.5% plain white salt to fortify a home grain mix with vitamins and minerals.

The suggested feeding program is intended solely as a guide. The variables of management, environment and breed may dictate changes in the animal’s dietary requirements.
