How Experienced Feeders Actually Use It
Sullivan’s page asks whether the animal acts lethargic or run down after traveling or after stress related to weigh-in, and the directions for pigs, sheep, and goats are 5 cc both before and during shows.
Phase Protocols
Before and during the show
- Pigs, sheep, and goats: 5 cc both before and during shows
- Purpose: Sullivan’s page describes the paste for animals that act lethargic or run down after traveling or after weigh-in stress
Stacking Protocols
Super Charge B12 + Replenish: B12 handles energy and recovery. Replenish is the electrolyte paste if water intake drops.
Budget Alternatives
- Injectable B12 (thiamine/B12 combinations available from farm supply stores) provides faster repletion at lower cost but requires injection
- B-vitamin top-dress products (B-vitamin packs, Stress Pak) provide oral B12 but in lower concentrations and slower absorption vs. paste delivery
- The live bacteria component can be supplemented with Appetite Express Granules daily — but not as a travel-specific dose
