Aanvullend advies
- Divide the “Feed quantity per day” over at least two feeding moments per day.
- Supplement the diet with ad libitum browse.
- The browse used in the diet can be a mixture between dried and fresh browse (read more about browsers and grazers).
- Although present in their natural diets, feeding fruits might lead to abnormal fermentation in the hindgut because of high sugar levels in cultivated fruits compared to wild fruits (read more about nutritional values of (wild) fruits and vegetables).
- Stimulate foraging behaviour by stacking or hiding the feed (read more about feed enrichment and foraging behaviour).
