Anybody used these for sheep? Any problems?
In my quest for a high protein feed to floor feed alongside fodder beet to housed, lactating sheep, I came across these again. 30% protein, 13 ME in a 6mm nut and high in bypass protein. High in digestible fibre too, so a good rumen buffer and has a bit of yeast left in too. Sounds like a perfect feed.
Last time I looked them up, availability was an issue, but perhaps more about now when cereals must be cheap enough to go into bio-ethanol again.
I see Trident are now selling them in a 50% blend with SBP, calling it Wheatbeet.
