Summary

Land O'Lakes Purina Feed LLC is recalling 208 bags of Sheep Balancer B136 Medicated feed because the product contains excessively high levels of copper. This veterinary feed was distributed in 50-lb. bags across six dealers in Southeast Nebraska and Western Iowa. Consumers who purchased this feed should immediately stop using it and return any remaining bags to the place of purchase for a full refund.
