Important
Consumption of ACCURATION® Sheep & Goat Hi-Fat Block will vary depending on quality of forage, quantity of forage, condition of sheep or goats, previous feeding programs, and block feeding location. Animals may need to adapt to the block before the correct consumption is reached. If consumption is low, examine forage quality and the block feeding location. If consumption is higher than desired the quantity/quality of forage may need to be increased, the blocks can be placed further away from the loafing or watering area, and/or reduce the number of blocks available to animals.
