Product Information
Full details
FarmSense NutriMax Sheep is a premium-grade trace element and vitamin drench designed for sheep farmers and livestock managers seeking to optimize flock health in nutrient-deficient regions. By utilizing high-specification chelated minerals, this supplement provides faster, more efficient absorption compared to conventional mineral additives, directly supporting robust growth and improved feed conversion ratios in sheep and lambs over four weeks old. While highly effective for addressing specific mineral gaps, it must be used as a targeted complementary feed rather than a total replacement for a balanced forage-based diet.

FAQs
At what age can lambs start receiving NutriMax Sheep?
It is safe for use in lambs aged 4 weeks and older.
What makes chelated minerals better than standard minerals?
Chelated minerals are bonded to organic compounds, which allows them to be absorbed much faster and more efficiently by the sheep's digestive system compared to standard mineral salts.
Can I give this to other livestock?
NutriMax Sheep is formulated specifically for the nutritional requirements of sheep; consult a veterinarian before using it on other species.
How often should I drench my flock?
Frequency should be based on your specific farm's mineral status and your vet's recommendations; typically used during high-demand growth phases.
Is this a substitute for feed?
No, it is a complementary feed supplement designed to bridge mineral gaps in the primary diet, not to serve as a complete feed.
What is the shelf life of the 3-litre bottle?
When stored correctly in a cool, dry place, the product maintains its potency until the expiry date printed on the container.
Troubleshooting
Product appears separated in the bottle
Thoroughly shake the container for 30 seconds to re-suspend the minerals before dispensing.
Drenching gun is clogging
Flush the applicator with warm water and check for debris or dried residue; ensure the product is not left in the gun between sessions.
Sheep are spitting out the drench
Ensure the nozzle is placed correctly over the back of the tongue; check that the sheep's head is not held too high to prevent choking or aspiration.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Administration should be performed using a calibrated drenching gun to ensure every animal receives the precise volume required for their weight class. Always shake the container thoroughly before use to ensure the chelated minerals remain in suspension.
Store the product in a cool, dry environment, away from direct sunlight and freezing temperatures. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use to prevent contamination. When cleaning drenching equipment, use clean, warm water and allow the tools to air dry completely before storing them. NutriMax is compatible with most standard management practices, but avoid mixing directly with other medicated drenches unless advised by a veterinary professional.
