Feeding Directions
Tradition® Goat Starter/Grower is formulated specifically for one-week to sixteen-week-old kids when supplemental nutrient requirements are high.
Offer Tradition® Goat Starter/Grower to kids as the first feed to encourage early consumption.
#751D:
Feed Tradition® Goat Starter/Grower D22.7 to starting goats at the rate of 1.0 pound per 100 pounds body weight to provide 22.7 milligrams Decoquinate (Deccox®) per 100 pounds body weight per day. Feed at least 28 days during periods of exposure or when experience indicates that coccidiosis is likely to be a hazard.
#751M:
Mix 1,600 pounds of Tradition® Goat Starter/Grower R25 with 400 pounds of medium to good quality hay (air dried basis) to provide 20 grams of Monensin (Rumensin®) per ton. Feed to starting and growing goats, along with additional good quality forage.
Feed Tradition® Goat Starter/Grower in small quantities in a clean well-lit creep area. It is important to keep feed clean and fresh to encourage consumption. It is also important to offer good quality hay and fresh, clean water free-choice.
Feeding Tips
- Divide the suggested daily feeding rate into 2 or 3 feedings per day.
- Changes in the diet should be made over a 1 to 2 week period to help prevent digestive disturbances.
- Never feed any feedstuffs that are moldy, musty or suspect in any way.

Management Tips
- Newborns should receive colostrum within the first 24 hours after birth.
- Up to 3 days of age, if hand feeding, offer milk 3 to 4 times a day. After 3 days of age, reduce that to twice a day.
- Start kids on dry starter feed as fast as possible. Start with small, fresh samples daily after about 1 week of age.
- Wean kids as early as 5 to 6 weeks old but most wait until about 3 to 4 months of age to wean.
Tradition® Goat Starter/Grower is formulated specifically for goats and should not be fed to other species.
WARNING: THESE PRODUCTS, WHICH CONTAIN ADDED COPPER, SHOULD NOT BE FED TO SHEEP OR OTHER RELATED SPECIES THAT HAVE A LOW TOLERANCE TO COPPER.
