In Reply to: LUMPY FEED??? posted by Helene on October 29, 2001 at 15:02:27:
Hi Helene,Pg 100 and 101 in your book. It talks A little about pellets. and go to my posts about my experience with pellets.Now to- your sweet feed or goat chow, any thing with molasses will get kind of lumpy ,It will break up if you work it with your hands. There should not be [ see or smell] any mold. Take it back and make them replace it.If it is purina or any other big co. call them. Tell them about the freqency of bad feed. Heres what I know about feed mixing mills--The feed is mixed in hugh silo type vats that are Controlled by heat,fans ,gauges, men, watching every thing.Every now and then some one will not watch the process and a batch will go bad ,right in the bag. This is human error,or machinery break down . But, what ever it is,they want to know . If they dont care ,you better change companys.In the book natural goat care.there is A formula Thats tried and true. And quite simple.....I'm surely going to it....... goat mom
