    Yes but that stuff is 29% Horse.

    What's your lamb benching at the moment by the way?

    5kg of 80% Whey Concentrate for ~35 blips from BulkPowders.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,707 ✭✭✭MikeC101


    Just ordered 20kg of it, will run a cycle.

    Expecting PRs every week, and gambolling ability to increase at least 25%.

    Are you sure it doesn't just say whey and not whey protein


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,371 ✭✭✭john_cappa


    I am sure it is a very low protein content. It is a milk substitute so once mixed its target will be 4% ish. Product for animal consumption is hardly comparable.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,900 ✭✭✭✭Mellor


    The animal feed contains raw whey.
    Protein powder contains whey protein concentrate or isolate. Huge difference.

    The 12kg of whey in that feed probably only amounts to 1kg in terms of concentrate/isolate.

    Honestly, if whey was that cheap, somebody would be undercutting the whole market.

    Why not feed the lambs on grass and then eat the lambs?
