Feed as a complete ration with limited roughage to laboratory animals in amounts to maintain desired body condition.
Follow these management practices:
1. When making a ration change, allow 7-10 days for animals to adjust to the new ration.
2. Provide a source of fresh, clean water at all times.
3. Keep adequate supply of complete feed, normally 2-3% of the animal’s body weight, available to laboratory ruminants. Do not allow fine material to accumulate in feeders.
4. Provide adequate bunk space for each animal. Bunks should be protected and well managed to prevent feed from becoming wet and moldy.
5. When fed from self-feeder, adjust feeder to minimize quantity of feed accumulating in trough.
6. Consult your veterinarian for recommended health program for your local area, including internal and external parasite control.
Caution: Store in dry area away from insects. Do not feed moldy or insect-infested feed to animals as illness, abortionor death may result.
