High protein nuts
« on: July 15, 2013, 09:12:42 am »
Posting this in here aswell as the goats section as think I may stand a better chance of finding them.
we are trying to find some high protein nuts for the Boer goats.
Another Boer breeder feeds a mix of 31% protien nuts, Flaked Maze, flaked Barley, Crushed Peas and readi grass of equal quantaties and her herd of 50 Goats are doing fantastic on it and want to source the high protine nuts in the north of england

you only feed high protein such as that, if your milking them, but if your not an 15% is suffient. :farmer:

You can use soya instead of high protein nuts to increase the protein percentage of your mix, and add your own minerals. That is available from any feed stockist.
