Mapleview Lamb Start (22-22-28)

Mapleview Lamb Start is a highly digestible, skim milk based milk replacer formulated using the most recent scientific information and designed for optimal growth of young lambs.

It is formulated with a lower pH, using a blend of ingredients for quick dispersion resulting in a milk replacer with a highly desirable texture and aroma to stimulate the lamb’s appetite. Optimum digestibility is maintained whether the milk replacer is used in a computerized feeding or hand mixing system.

Manual Mixing Instructions

  1. First determine the number of litres of milk to be fed.
  2. Measure half of this volume as hot (47-65 degree) water.
  3. To determine the amount of powder use a scale and weigh 190g times the number of litres of milk to be fed. (eg. 16L of milk requires 16 x 190g which equals 3kg of powder.)
  4. Add this milk replacer to the hot water and mix until dissolved.
  5. Add remaining water to obtain desired volume aiming for a final drinking temperature of 40 C. Re-mix prior to feeding.

Computer Feeder Instructions

  1. Calibrate the computer to add 235g of milk replacer per litre of water dispensed. This will result in 190g/l of reconstituted milk.
