Protein Nutrition For Show Lambs, Goats,
and Steers
| Ruminant animals (cattle, sheep, goats, etc...) are uniquely
suited to obtain a major portion of their protein needs
from both dietary sources or protein derived from
microbes (bacteria, protozoa, etc...) which flourish in
the stomach (rumen). Although not always appreciated,
rumen microbes make up nearly 40% of the non-ammonia
nitrogen available for absorption into the blood stream.
Therefore, both sources are important contributors to the
total protein needs of the animal. Recent research has
shown that rumen by-pass proteins provide additional
nutritional support beyond that which is associated with
normal degradable and microbial protein sources. These
data should not be construed to the point that ruminal by-pass proteins make up the primary focus of protein
nutrition. On the contrary, the benefits of ruminal by-pass proteins are rarely seen except during periods of
high production, performance, and/or stress. These
reasons are precisely why the nutritionists at Premier
Nutrition Technologies developed ByPass
2000; the all-new
rumen-bypass protein supplement developed exclusively for
high-performance show lambs, goats, and steers.

The Next Generation in Rumen By-Pass Technology!
ByPass 2000 has
established itself as the leader in By-Pass protein technology for
the livestock show industry. We speculate more champions
(sheep, goats, and steers) have been fed ByPass 2000
than any other protein supplement on the market.
Recent champions include either Grand or Reserve Grand at the
American Royal (two years in a row), LA State Fair, Arksarben, NM
State Fair and the list goes on and on (click
here for a more detailed list). The reason it helped put
these animals in the winner's circle is shown below. |
ByPass 2000 is
UNIQUE
When developing a top-quality rumen by-pass supplement it is
important to consider the qualities of several differing
ingredients. ByPass 2000 contains a balance of highly digestible
rumen by-pass protein sources that supply the animal a proper
ratio of by-pass amino acids to assure maximal muscle expression
is achieved. ByPass 2000 offers
4 unique ingredients with varying
levels of rumen by-pass protein. We don't stop there. ByPass 2000
is fortified with the MOST scientifically balanced Anti-oxidant Package currently available in a product of this kind. Clearly,
an essential component of any supplement formulated for
high-performance animals.
WHEN SHOULD I USE ByPass 2000?
ByPass 2000 is a quality nutritional protein supplement for
all phases of lamb & calf growth, however, it best suited for animals during at least three particular
instances of the feeding cycle:
1.During periods of rapid growth when microbial and
digestible protein availability may be limiting. ByPass 2000
will provide additional essential proteins (amino acids)
during this period of growth stress.
2. During the holding phase when lambs and calves are
being offered a restricted diet in an attempt to limit growth
late in the feeding cycle.
3. During periods of stress which may result in a catabolic
condition (muscle protein breakdown) such as; hauling,
exercising, and/or extreme fluctuations in weather.
HOW SHOULD ByPass2000 BE USED?
ByPass 2000 should be fed daily as a nutritional supplement
along with a quality, complete nutritional program. For more information
