Feed

The sheep industry has changed dramatically over the past few years. Sheep have been regarded as a meat animal, with most producers growing and finishing lambs for the Easter spring market. The market for fresh lamb is beginning to extend into the summer with consumers looking for Canadian lamb all year round due to its quality.

Now sheep have joined dairy cows and dairy goats, as suppliers of fresh milk and cheese products. The nutrient requirements have changed dramatically as a result. Contact Holly for feed and management recommendations.
