Anyone use the mole valley 16% pellet ? can get that delivered at 322 a ton bagged, waiting on price for blown but was surprised at that as last year they were £100 a ton more than other local firms, about £20 in it now have they changed ingredients ?

Look at Alkagrain. Buy some straight cereals, mix with pellets, sheet for 10 days, feed.

By the time you’ve added minerals, even at today’s cereal prices, you’re looking at £240/t for a 15-16% CP, high starch, alkaline ration.👍

50% whole oats 40% whole wheat 10% soya bag of mins will give you a 16% mix for probably £100 ton less than the one on the photo which has got some poor ingredients and a very poor protein source
Does it need to be 15 or 16% CP? I've just started the reject tup lambs on a 13.5% lamb finishing blend, which they seem to be taking to quite readily. I used a 16% blend to complement hay for ewe lambs a couple of years ago, when the emphasis was on growth rather than finish.
