Badminton Country Sheep Nuts – 20kg
A fully balanced, convenient ration designed to meet the needs of sheep of all ages. Highly digestible micronised wheat and fibre sources provide energy to support pregnant and lactating ewes through the heaviest demand of the year, and to hold condition across the rest of the flock.
The enhanced vitamin and mineral profile includes bioavailable Bioplex zinc and Sel-Plex selenium, both chosen for better absorption than standard inorganic forms. A useful practical feature is that the nuts soften readily in water, which makes them workable for lambs, sick animals or older sheep with poor dentition that cannot manage a hard nut.
