Product Information
Full details
Battles Twin Lamb Care is a high-energy nutritional supplement specifically designed for sheep farmers and smallholders managing ewes at risk of pregnancy toxaemia, commonly known as twin lamb disease. By providing a concentrated boost of electrolytes and amino acids, this drench helps maintain maternal health and vitality during the high-demand late pregnancy phase. While it is an excellent support tool for boosting energy levels, it is important to note that it should be used as part of a broader veterinary-managed health strategy rather than a substitute for professional diagnosis of severe metabolic conditions.
