Looking to start throwing few lambs on meal here, probably least ever due to success of Redstart trial this year. Looked at different options today with merchant and gave me below 3, more or less all same price 16% one prob €10 more. They all have minerals etc added for intensive feeding to lambs.
I usually finish on a 16% nut that I like but merchant doesn't stock it normally and they do a deal and buy in bulk for me each year from the mill, not having the same amount of lambs to finish this year thought I'd look at their standard feed stock as want to keep using this merchant for the service they provide.
Merchant is pushing the 16% finisher says other people doing well on it, I'm leaning towards the 13%. Any thoughts on the below options appreciated.
