There's a PDF option and a comments page from the current Manitoba staff.

On a side note for those that dont have other types of livestock.if you are making your own feed or you want to supplement a couple of birds

There are 2 products that have been around 100 years

Reading the article i suspect one/both of these are the milk based dry product spoken of..before the advent of milk replacers these two products had milk productsin them..once milk replacers were developed they basically took that part out leaving this..

My preferred one is made by lonestar mills out of texas
