    I’ve seen the 25kg Lamlac in aurivo aswell, but they might have to order it in for you.

    It's not right for lambs, ewe milk has twice the fat and more protein than cows, we fed pet lambs on cows milk years ago, some lived and some died but they all had pot bellies, seldom lose a pet lamb now.
    If maverick worked no one would use lamlac, lamlac is probably twice the price
