Double Down

Holding and bloom product — maintains shape and amplifies bloom effect when fed in the ration; specifically designed for shows that restrict drenching at the venue

Always read and follow product labels for feeding and sheep safety.

Overview

Double Down is All N Supplements’ holding and bloom amplifier, designed to maintain show-ready shape and enhance the bloom effect of All N when used together. Its key differentiator is that it is fed in the ration rather than administered as a drench — making it the solution for shows that prohibit drenching at the venue. Available in two sizes: small (1.3 gallon / 7 lbs) and large (4 gallon / 20 lbs). The feeding rate varies significantly by purpose: at 4–8 oz/feeding it amplifies bloom alongside All N; at 12–32 oz/feeding it can replace part of the ration for weight management. Ingredient list and guaranteed analysis are not publicly available; drug-free status is not confirmed.

Official Feeding Rate

  • Bloom enhancement (with All N): 4–8 oz per feeding, starting 3–5 days before show day
  • Weight management (partial ration replacement): 12–32 oz per feeding, or as needed, as a complete ration replacement component
  • Young stock / sale prep: 4–8 oz per feeding, starting 3–5 days before sale day
  • Species notes: Hogs, sheep, goats, cattle

Key Use Case — Drench-Restricted Shows

All N Supplements specifically positions Double Down for shows that prohibit drenching. When the show rules prevent administering All N as a drench in the ring or holding area, Double Down fed in the ration achieves a similar holding and bloom effect without requiring drench administration.


Sheep Safety

Copper — UNKNOWN: No ingredient list or guaranteed analysis is publicly available. Cannot confirm copper level. Contact All N before publishing any safety designation.

Drug-free — UNCONFIRMED: No explicit drug-free statement found for Double Down (unlike All N, which is described as “all natural — will not test at any show”). Confirm drug-free/compliance status directly with the company.

How Experienced Feeders Actually Use It

Double Down is used in two distinct scenarios:

1. As a pre-show primer (most common): Starting 3–5 days before the show, feeders add 4–8 oz of Double Down to the ration. This builds toward the All N show-day drench, amplifying the bloom and holding effect. The two products together (Double Down in feed + All N as drench) constitute the full All N system.

2. As a ration replacement for weight management: At higher rates (12–32 oz), Double Down can partially or fully replace the dry ration when an animal needs to pull weight. This is the same concept as the SSS Chocolate Milk technique — liquid calories that pass through faster than grain, reducing rumen fill and scale weight while maintaining body condition.

3. For drench-restricted shows: When show rules prohibit drenching, Double Down fed in the ration is the workaround — providing similar bloom and holding effects through feed intake rather than drench administration.


Phase Protocols

Weeks 2–1 | Pre-Show Preparation

  • Rate: 4–8 oz in ration, once or twice daily
  • Purpose: Begin building bloom and holding effect; prime the animal for show day

Show Week (Days 5–1)

  • Rate: 4–8 oz in ration
  • Stack with: All N drench on show day (if allowed) for amplified effect

Show Day

  • Rate: 4–8 oz in morning ration feed
  • For drench-restricted shows: Continue Double Down in ration in place of All N drench
  • Purpose: Maintain holding and bloom through the class

Stacking Protocols

Double Down + All N: The designed combination system. Double Down builds the effect over 3–5 days pre-show; All N delivers the acute show-day drench pop. Together they are described by All N as amplified vs. either product alone.
