Livestock and poultry supplements
On this page10
What they are
Mineral and vitamin supplements, feed additives and premixes for cattle, sheep, goats, pigs and poultry. Dry, scooped, and bought in a quantity that lasts.
The archetype
A feed supplement for livestock and bees, 250 to 4,000 mL, wide mouth, scooped. The note had no process default until 18 October 2026 and now says what it always described: a chunky solid taken out with a scoop.
Which the shelf does not serve well
399 containers with a median of 118 mL and 22 at a litre or more. The depth here is in small bottles, and a 2 kg mineral supplement is not a small bottle.
Say that rather than working around it
A bag or a pail is what this product is usually sold in, and a packaging catalog is not the right supplier for a 25 kg sack. For the smaller end, a wide-mouth jar or tub at a litre or two is a real answer.
The ruminant question lives here
Of the four leaves, this is the one where prohibited mammalian protein plausibly appears, and the one where cattle are the named customer. Run the formula before anything else.
Guaranteed analysis is the state-facing number
Minimums and maximums you will meet in every batch, verifiable by assay. It is the thing a state tests when it buys your product off a shelf.
Fill by weight and expect settling
Bulk density varies, dry products settle, and a declared weight is what you are held to. The container will look emptier on arrival than it did at packing.
Density is the number that surprises people
A mineral supplement is heavy for its volume. A four litre tub can hold five or six kilograms, which changes the shipping class, the pallet pattern and whether the container itself is strong enough.
Start with one species and one claim
Cattle, poultry and pigs are three different registrations, three guaranteed analyses and three label reviews. A first product aimed at one of them reaches market in a fraction of the time.
