I have an automatic nipple water system that everyone was happily drinking from last year. When winter hit it was shut down and replaced with lixit style bottle with the same kind of nipple. Now that we're within spitting distance of our last frost date (yay!) the water system has come back...

Based on what I've learned from lurking all you experts, I've been feeding my herd 16% pellets and supplementing breeding does and growouts with a candy mix of calf manna-BOSS-rolled oats. Everyone really loves the candy and I was hoping you could recommend how much I should be giving them. Thanks!
