Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Cargill, Inc. is recalling approximately 206 units of various animal feeds, including Lamb Wise Lamb & Sheep Feed, Nutra Beef Cattle Grower, Miller Feed Lot custom feed, and Llama Mineral. These products either contain excessive amounts of Chlortetracycline or contain this medication when it was not declared on the label. Affected products were distributed to retail stores and end users in Montana and Wyoming and sold in both 50 lb bags and bulk quantities. Consumers should contact their veterinarian if their animals show signs of illness and return any remaining product to the place of purchase for a refund.

Risk

The feeds contain levels of Chlortetracycline (an antibiotic) that are higher than intended or were not disclosed on the product labeling. This poses a risk of unintended drug exposure or antibiotic toxicity in livestock and llamas, which can lead to health complications for the animals.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify your product by checking the label and packaging for Lamb Wise Lamb & Sheep Feed 20% (50 lb bags), Nutra Beef Cattle Grower #4 Bull R 30 (bulk), Miller Feed Lot 45/27 472g Mon (bulk), or Llama Mineral (50 lb bags).
  2. Check the recall numbers to confirm your product is affected: Lamb Wise (V-039-2008), Nutra Beef (V-040-2008), Miller Feed Lot (V-041-2008), and Llama Mineral (V-042-2008).
  3. Immediately stop feeding the recalled products to your sheep, lambs, cattle, or llamas.
  4. Contact your veterinarian or animal healthcare provider if your livestock have consumed these products and show any signs of illness.
  5. Return any unused product to the retail store or dealer where it was purchased for a full refund.
  6. Contact Cargill, Inc. at their Billings, Montana facility located at 1406 Industrial Ave or by calling their main office for more information regarding this recall.
