Feeding Instructions

Feeding Directions
SWEETLIX^® GAINPRO^® Poured Block is formulated to be fed free-choice to growing beef steers and heifers on pasture (stocker, feeder, and slaughter) and replacement beef heifers on pasture to provide 10-20 mg bambermycins per head daily. Cattle must consume 2.7 to 5.3 oz per head daily of the SWEETLIX^® GAINPRO^® Poured Block to receive this amount of bambermycins. Pasture should be adequate to assure that the maximum consumption of the block supplement will not exceed 5.3 oz per head per day (which provides 20 mg bambermycins).
IMPORTANT: This product must not be fed to animals without adequate pasture and/or adequate roughage. These blocks are not intended as the sole source of feed for cattle.
To establish the required block consumption it is essential that the cattle and feed management practices are adapted to SWEETLIX^® unmedicated 4-in-1 blocks for a 14 day period prior to introduction of medicated blocks. Adaptaion may be considered established when the cattle’s intake of the unmedicated block reaches the required SWEETLIX^® GAINPRO^® Poured Block consumption rate. Failure to practice feed adaptation may result in unsatisfactory herd intake of blocks, and thus, inadequate or excessive drug intake.

Feed SWEETLIX^® GAINPRO^® Poured Block as the sole source of salt. If cattle are overconsuming this product, providing salt or mineral may help reduce consumption.
SWEETLIX^® GAINPRO^® Poured Block should not be fed in areas where high salt or alkalinity have been identified in the water or soil.
Locate SWEETLIX^® GAINPRO^® Poured Block near where cattle congregate, such as watering and loafing areas. Feed at the rate of one (1) block for every 20 head of cattle. When the individual block is 4/5 consumed, add an additional block.
It is essential that good block husbandry practices be followed at all times. Access to the intake of SWEETLIX^® GAINPRO^® Poured Block may be affected during or directly after rain or dew, freezing conditions and/or a change of pasture.
Variations in cattle routine behavior may change their block consumption pattern and watering habits. Relocate blocks immediately as necessary.

CAUTION: USE AS DIRECTED. Consumption of selenium should not exceed 3 mg per head daily.
