Proof that Valais Blacknose sheep and children, are not that dissimilar. Both like licking the bowl, or box, clean. @olssonsblocks 🐑

⛈☀️🌱When the grass grows, PHOSPHORUS becomes the key to growth ⛈☀️🌱
Did you know the best time to supplement your herd with phosphorus is when the grass is green and growing?
When pasture is lush and full of protein and energy, phosphorus becomes the key nutrient limiting growth and fertility.
💡 During the wet season, cattle eat more and grow faster - which increases their demand for phosphorus to support energy use, bone development, and reproductive performance. Without it, they can’t make full use of that high-quality feed.
✅ Supplementing before the wet season kicks off means:
Faster growth rates
Stronger bones
Improved fertility for better breeding results
According to an MLA study, $1 spent on P supplementation yields a $4-$5 ROI in P-deficient areas.
The wet season is just around the corner. If you’re in a phosphorus-deficient area, now’s the time to act!
We now offer 8%, 12%, and 15% phosphorus options in the superphos line to match your herd’s needs.

🐑 Autumn Lambing is Here! 🍂
With lambing just around the corner, now is the time to support your ewes with the right nutrition to prevent pregnancy toxaemia (twin lamb disease). Late-pregnant sheep often struggle to maintain energy levels as feed intake drops and glucose precursors become scarce.
Olsson’s Ewe Little Beauty Pre-Lambing Block provides premium glycerol, helping maintain glucose levels and reducing the risk of metabolic disorders. Start supplementing 4–5 weeks before lambing to give your ewes and lambs the best possible start! Now with 4% magnesium to help prevent hypomagnesaemia during the colder months. ☁️🐑
📍 Available now – don’t wait until it’s too late! #OlssonsBlocks #EweLittleBeauty #lambingseason by @valaisblacknose_yarravalley
