Megastart Ewe & Lamb: Optimal Nutrition for Pre & Post Lambing
Ensure your flock receives the vital nutritional support they need during the critical pre and post-lambing period with Megastart Ewe & Lamb. This high-quality supplement feed block is specifically formulated to meet the increased energy and protein demands of pregnant and lactating ewes, setting the foundation for healthy lambs and a productive flock. Designed for convenience and effectiveness, Megastart Ewe & Lamb is provided as a free-access feed tub, allowing ewes to regulate their own intake according to their individual needs, typically consumed at a rate of 100g to 150g per head per day.
Administering Megastart Ewe & Lamb during the crucial 4-6 weeks leading up to lambing provides ewes with a concentrated source of essential nutrients. It delivers an excellent boost of energy derived from a blend of sugars, starch, and protected fat, crucial for maintaining ewe condition and supporting fetal development. Furthermore, the inclusion of high-quality rumen bypass protein ensures that the ewe's elevated protein requirements are met, supporting udder development and colostrum production without overburdening the rumen.
Megastart Ewe & Lamb goes beyond basic energy and protein needs. It features a carefully balanced profile of essential minerals and vitamins vital for both ewe health and lamb vitality. Key inclusions like Vitamin E are known to significantly improve lamb vigour at birth, increasing survival rates. The addition of Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) helps to mitigate the risk of Cerebrocortical Necrosis (CCN), a common metabolic disorder in sheep. Moreover, the formulation is scientifically proven to help activate the ewe's immune system, leading to improved colostrum quality – the essential first milk that provides passive immunity to newborn lambs. The inclusion of lactose offers a readily available carbohydrate source, further supporting the ewe's energy balance.
