Harwood Grains Sheep Feed Range

Lamb Starter

Lamb Starter is an all-in-one pelleted feed optimised to get lambs off to a great start. It is a high protein feed suitable for young growing lambs from 4 weeks of age.


Lamb Starter contains a balanced profile of grains, roughage, protein, vitamins and minerals to supply essential nutrients to young lambs. This complete feed helps to support the growth of young lambs and aids in immune health.


Lamb Starter is a highly palatable ration that aids in transitioning lambs from milk to pellets and improves the conversion of feed into weight gain. It also contains natural plant antioxidants to support immune health and aid in combating gut pathogens (such as Salmonella and E. coli) and coccidiosis to improve health and performance.


Lamb Starter includes a rumen buffer to help prevent rumen acidosis (grain poisoning).
