Cargill Animal Nutrition is recalling approximately 1,225 bags (50 lbs each) of Southern States Grow-N-Show Lamb Feed (BVT) (WK) Medicated due to dangerously high levels of copper. This medicated feed contains the active drug ingredient Lasalocid at a concentration of 30.00 g/ton and was sold in 50 lb bags. The recall was initiated after it was discovered the feed contained copper levels that could be toxic to sheep. These products were distributed in Delaware, Kentucky, New Jersey, Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, and Maryland.
Sheep are highly sensitive to copper; excessive levels in their diet can lead to copper poisoning, which causes liver damage, destruction of red blood cells, and can be fatal. Consumers should immediately stop using the affected feed to prevent livestock illness or death.
Return to place of purchase for a refund.
