i know it's not a lot to go on but someone smarter than me can give me an insight into the breakdown of these rolls.
@Gilchro @scholland @Nithsdale Farmer
Due to start lambing in 6 days. Have already had a couple slips but had a set of triplets today that although are up and at it just lack that extra something. Ewes have been on hay for the last 6-7 weeks and carried on into housing. Also access to energy buckets and are motoring through them now. Twins and triplets are on 0.85kg rolls /hd/day access to buckets and hay.
Have been feeding singles rolls as the condition has fallen off them and really disappointed from how they fealt at 2nd heptavac 3 weeks ago aswell as buckets and hay.
Was advised the buckets and hay would be enough for the singles and a bit concerned how they are feeling now.
As some may have noticed I was lookin at a home mix and supplementing soya but was pursuaded not too maybe against my gut instinct but ultimately was my decision. Thoughts?
