In the new year when the lambs are born when they are weaned of their mums should i fed them meal or just grass feed them?
-
Depends what you want to do with them but in most cases good, clean grass is ideal.
-
same as yeoman we never do- just grass. but it will depend on when they're born, stocking rate/state of the grass and possibly what breed they are and how quickly you want them to grow. We've always thought that if we were to feed them at all it would be to finish off the meat boys, but we've never needed to do that yet either.
