[QUOTE="abitdaft, post: 7755163, member: 43280"] I personally would not put them straight onto good grass straight off the hill, a transition would be better if you can. The ewes are not used to rich grass. If you can get them onto mediocre pasture and start with blocks that they are used to and introduce cake around the areas where the blocks are you have a better uptake of the harder feeding without too many problems and then shift them to better grass. Some hill ewes come off the hill onto good grass, blow up and die. [/QUOTE]
