Feeding Guide

Furneys Sheep and Cattle Nuts should be introduced slowly to your sheep and cattle’s diet gradually over a 2 – 3 week period to avoid any occurrence of (acidosis) grain poisoning, especially if animals haven’t been fed on a grain based diet feed before.

Feed in conjunction with good quality hay or pasture.It is recommended that the nuts are trailed on the ground or put in several clumps so all animals can eat at the same time. When using troughs it is important to have adequate space for all animals to eat at the same time.
