Unifeed Hi-Pro, Inc.: Cattle and Heifer Feeds Recalled for Elevated Urea Levels

Agency Publication Date: February 6, 2012

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Unifeed Hi-Pro, Inc. is recalling approximately 18,800 pounds of specialized cattle feed products, including Owen Bean Far-Off Dry Cow Mineral, Owen Bean Heifer Mix, and Holy Cow Calf Ration. These products were distributed in Texas and are being recalled because they may contain elevated levels of urea, which can be toxic to livestock. Consumers should immediately stop using these specific feeds and return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Risk

Elevated urea levels in animal feed can lead to urea poisoning (non-protein nitrogen toxicity). This occurs when the urea is broken down into ammonia faster than the animal's rumen can process it, potentially leading to rapid illness or death in cattle.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if you have the affected feed by checking for these product names: No. 60440 V.0310 Owen Bean Far-Off Dry Cow Mineral (2,400 lbs), Hi-Pro Feeds No. 60255 V.0210 Owen Bean Heifer Mix (8,400 lbs), or Hi-Pro Feeds No. 60327 V.0310 Holy Cow Calf Ration (8,000 lbs).
  2. Check the recall numbers on your documentation or packaging: V-033-2012, V-034-2012, or V-035-2012.
  3. Immediately stop feeding these specific products to your livestock.
  4. Return any unused portions of the recalled feed to the place of purchase for a full refund or contact Unifeed Hi-Pro, Inc. for further instructions.
  5. If your livestock have consumed these products and show signs of illness, contact a veterinarian immediately.
  6. For additional questions, contact the FDA Consumer Complaint Coordinator at the agency's general inquiry line at 1-888-463-6332.
