When it comes to creep feeding, timing matters ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ“ˆ

As younger animals have an inbuilt growth efficiency, we can feed less for more gain.

For example:
โœ”๏ธ A young lamb will need around 4kg of feed to gain 1kg weight
โœ”๏ธ An older lamb, post weaning will need closer to 5kg of feed to gain 1kg weight

Thatโ€™s why early nutrition can make such a difference to performance and feed efficiency.

Creep feeding can offer many advantages on farm - but first and foremost it must be profitable to do so.

Getting the right system in place can help support efficient growth while making the most of lamb performance during the period they are naturally most efficient.

Thanks for having us at a fantastic Stabiliser Open Day at Coulterfanny Farm. It was great to see such a strong turnout and so much interest in the breed.

A huge thank you to Stuart Johnston and family for hosting such a well run event and for sharing valuable insight into the system and efficiencies at Coulterfanny.

We were delighted to have our Beef & Sheep Nutritionist, Jill Hunter, speaking on epigenetics and the impact nutrition can have across generations.

Brilliant to catch up with everyone who attended and hear from all of the guest speakers throughout the day.

Did you know introducing creep feed to young lambs is the most efficient time to feed? ๐Ÿ‘

Lambs are able to convert at 4:1, which means they only need 4kg of feed to put on 1kg weight!
