which lambs milk powder?

[exmoor dave]

I'm a volac man normally. but having been dis-organized and having run out I've had to pop over to the local feed place for a bag of shepherdess. this has happened many a time.
so I thought it would be interesting to see what every one else uses and likes/dislikes bout them.

I'll get the ball rolling. I prefer volac (well the mvf bagged stuff). seems to be richer, mixes better, doesn't have as many hard lumps in it and seems to keep better for longer in the warm milk feeder with out stinking. otherwise the lambs don't seem to care less along as their fed.

Volac here for same reasons, only ever tried others a couple of times before cant recall the name of the one last year when ran out of volac, but it came in a blue and white bag, it had a chemical smell, was awful to mix and seperated too once mixed it was horrid stuff, once merchant had volac back in I took it back and got a refund, it was crap, lambs refused it, had to go and blag volac from a mate, till merchant had it back in.
