[QUOTE="neilo, post: 6699709, member: 348"] I fed some housed lambs to fatten last year on 3mm lamb creep pellets using my 3-in-1 feeder (opened right up), as it was the only hopper I had. It kept bunging up, despite daily cleaning, limiting intakes. When I changed to Alkagrain (whole grain with a low level of pellets in the mix) intakes shot up significantly and it didn’t need cleaning out. This year I bought a ‘proper’ hopper and fed the Alkagrain mix through it, with intakes significantly higher again. [USER=3409]@ilovebalingtoo[/USER] , I feed my indoor lambing ewes by throwing ewe rolls on the floor. It’s a simple system, with little loss and little effort, and don’t intend changing from it. It’s certainly far more simple/reliable than trying to get the intakes right through a 3-in-1 feeder, although the diet will obviously be a bit dearer. [/QUOTE]
