  • In this video we show how we are feeding our finisher lambs and also talk about our last lambing over the last few weeks. We have had various age groups lambing and its interesting to see how they all perform differently.

    Feeding our livestock has become a real issue! I do not feed corn to my goats, but I do feed alfalfa pellets with a little of other things depending on what's going on with them. The pellets have gone up by 25% in just the last year! Hay was scary last year, but I managed to get a sweet deal on hay from my neighbor so it wasn't as bad as I had feared.

    It seems that further south hair sheep are more popular, whereas up north you seem to prefer the wooled sheep. I wonder why that is?

    • @valleyridgefarms
      @valleyridgefarms  Год назад +1

      I don't know why the general trend, but for us it's about which breed is most productive/profitable for our market and production purposes. The Rideau arcott were developed in Ontario for how we raise sheep and the way they are managed here. Under good management they can produce more than 3 lambs per ewe per year.

    How do you make sure the stronger lambs in the milk machine group don’t keep the smaller, weaker lambs from getting milk?

    • @valleyridgefarms
      @valleyridgefarms  2 года назад +2

      The milk is available 24 7 so they will have opportunity when the bigger ones aren't drinking. However, I do divide into two pens one for younger and one for older if their is a large age difference between them.

    when do you put them on the bulk feeder? is there a process before you introduce the bulk feeder to prevent bloat?

    • @valleyridgefarms
      @valleyridgefarms  Год назад +1

      They have access to feed already at 2 weeks old, then when we wean them at 60 days they go on full feed. No bloat issues because they have already been eating it before weaning.
