    Currently buying a ewe and lamb ration loose and feeding it to the ewes and was putting it in the creep feeder to get the lambs started. Now the lambs are eating well was going to switch the lambs to a lamb crunch, only thing is co op doesnt sell this loose and to buy it in small bags is quite expensive. Would the ewe and lamb ration be good enough feed to finish the lambs as they seem to be doing quite well on it at the min or would i be better buying the crunch??

    ewe and lamb ration shouldnt contain cal mag, so no danger to the males,

    if it's not broken don't attempt to fix it
