[QUOTE="Bury the Trash, post: 7945556, member: 12099"] Noted and obviously opposite to the positive effects of an alkaline rumen interestingly mentioned , the acidity caused by feeds (high starch ) conc. feeding will help .......but and its a big one because if they are getting a lot of that , although nutrient dense is helpful in the last stages , the type or lack of fibre wouldn't help either . .......and the beggars gorge on it as well even fed carefully , theres always ewes that barge and bully. Although expensive to do indoor sheep fed a complete mixed ration is such a good thing imo. (as long as they cant separate / be too selective ) as a base for that clamp Silage (made without too of what you mention ) cut at the right time would be ideal certainly being too fat early on is a baddie in other ways also like causing dystocia another one .. I sympathise with the ops problem as its a shocking one to have, the speed it happens and its quicker that any treatment can help at the time. [/QUOTE]
