NOn-GMO Prestige Goat Feed Program

Non-GMO Prestige Goat Feed uses only highly digestible ingredients that are properly balanced to match the specific needs of your goat herd. All products are fixed formulated, providing a high level of nutritional consistency. For optimum health and productivity, our team of experienced nutritionists provides us with properly formulated feed per the nutritional needs of your goat herd.

Our programs are designed and serviced by RCS, Inc., with over 30 years of goat feed and farm experience by Shawn Quinn. He is available for on-farm, over the phone, and feed meeting consultation. He currently consults with over 400+ farms across the United States and Canada.

LOCAL PELLET MILL

Mini-pellets are easily consumed by all goats. The higher compression during manufacturing creates minimal intake issues when compared to whole grain mixes or larger pellets.

CAPRINE IMMUNO-BOOST

A special designed trace mineral, vitamin, and additive pack that is provided through the entire non-GMO Prestige Goat product lineup. RCS designed this supplement to provide the proper amounts of these micro nutrients for all goat diets.

FORAGE TESTING

A NEMO representative is available for all types of forage testing to help determine the proper product to match with the forage.

Benefits of Non-GMO Prestige Goat Kid Goat Supplements

18% Protein—matches nutritional needs of the kid with our line of RCS milk replacers.
Starch and digestible fiber sources are balanced to enhance rumen development.
Premium sources of alfalfa meal and beet pulp are included.
Yeast culture is provided for improved bacterial count in rumen.
Stand Strong—increased palatability. Essential oils strengthen immunity and reduce clostridium, salmonella, and mycotoxins issues. The rumen enhancer will enhance the development of the four compartment rumen for fiber and carbohydrate digestion.
Dried milk whey is added to aid the kid goat during the transition of weaning from milk to grain and forage intake.
Ammonium chloride and the calcium to phosphorus ratio is set to minimize the risk of urinary calculi in young developing bucklings.

Feeding Types

Female Doeling:
Female doelings switch from Non-GMO Prestige 18% Starter to Non-GMO Prestige 16% Doeling Grower. This feed is fed ad libitum with high-quality alfalfa or grass hay until six months old. At this time, reduce Non-GMO Prestige 16% Grower to 1.5–2.0 lb per goat per day, depending on hay quality. The Non-GMO Prestige 16% Grower will be limit fed from 1.5–2.0 lb from six months of age to their kidding date. Allow the doeling to meet the remainder of its intake by consuming high-quality hay and/or pasture. Please contact your NEMO Feed representative for precise feeding directions.

Male Buckling:
Male bucklings switch from Non-GMO Prestige 18% Starter to Prestige 16% Meat Goat Grower / Finisher. They are offered the product ad libitum with a small amount of roughage or bedding to maximize average daily gain (ADG). Continue to provide ration until 60 lb of body weight. If you continue to grow bucklings to heavier finished weight, please switch to the Non-GMO Prestige 14% Meat Goat Finisher. Continue feeding the Non-GMO 14% Finisher with a limited amount of roughage in the form of dry hay.

LEARN MORE KID CARE TIPS

Feed colostrum within the first 0–6 hours to provide the proper immunoglobulins to develop the newborn’s immune system. Provide 1 fl oz ounce of whole colostrum, or colostrum replacement, for every lb of birth weight.

Provide kid milk replacer as an ideal whole milk replacement until weaning. Offer Non-GMO Prestige 18% Kid Starter at day seven. When the starter is consumed at 6–8 oz per kid per day, it is an ideal time to wean. Typical age of weaning is 6–8 weeks.

It is highly recommended that all kids are vaccinated with a veterinary recommended clostridium vaccine. It is suggested to vaccinate at 1–2 weeks during time of de-budding, and reboost the kid with an injection four weeks later to help prevent enterotoxemia or “overeating disease.”

If scours occur, it is critical to keep your goat kids hydrated. Kid electrolytes are made for the young goat kid’s needs. It is recommended to provide an electrolyte feeding between AM and PM milk feeding.

Prestige 18% Kid Starter contains a balanced source of protein, digestible fiber, carbohydrates, minerals, and vitamins to rapidly stimulate the development of the rumen. Offer high-quality alfalfa or grass hay at 8 weeks of age. Offering hay prior to rumen development will reduce body growth and increase the opportunity for illness and disease to develop.

Continue to offer Non-GMO Prestige 18% Kid Starter and dry hay ad libitum until daily consumption reaches 1.5 lb of Non-GMO Kid Starter. Then, switch to Non-GMO Prestige 16% Doeling Grower or Non-GMO Prestige 16% Goat Grower / Finisher.
